TCP/IP stack messed up after installing AOL 7.0


Question

Speaking about Internet issues. Has anyone seen a problem like this one before... On one of my friends machine, he was using AOL 6.0 but then updated to AOL 7.0 on a Win98 machine. For some reason, while the AOL service would connect. The TCP/IP stack seems to be severely broken since they can ping and traceroute but anything else like browsers, ftp,

telnet seems to run into a blackhole as it will seem as if the connection is down since none of the traffic is hitting the connection. Even when using a non ISP, the TCP/IP seems to fail during the authentication process. I've helped him remove the tcp/ip stack by editing the registry and removing the Dial Up Networking and even updating to Win98SE but the problem still remains... I've tried using a ethernet connection but the

problem is still ping/traceroute but all other connections fails.
