[gui-talk] Google Is Back

[Rob Tabor]

Good evening list.

I'm very happy to report Google is back and without the error 404 message,
though it took some trickery and manipulation on my part to restore Google
as my home page in IE10. I leveraged the Bing powered search engine of MSN
to run a search on Google and was able to get the iGoogle web page to load.
Once that was done I was able with some trial and error to manipulate tabs
and to reset Google as my home page. I did visit the gateway to see if the
router needed to be reset, but this was not necessary. Jude, thanks for the
suggestion all the same. It's good to have good ole Google back again. I was
beginning to wonder if I was getting slammed by Microsoft, the way the
telecoms were slamming customers back in the 1980s. Oy veh! Take care all
and have a superb night.

Best regards,
Rob "Jayhawk" Tabor

I can get zero packets lost and have a blank google page and all other web
pages be blank.  It happens beause I have a netgear 20 router.  
However when I open 192.168.1.1 andclick on take me to the internet I get
another screen prompting me to register the router.  If I close the browser
and have google set as my only home page in the browser, when I restart the
browser then the google page is  back but this time with no error 404 or
blank page but just the way it normally comes up.
