Dont know whether its related, but it only started today, and i started using dial up today aswell.


Almost certainly!

It's a seperate network connection so vista is probably treating it with seperate rules.

Make sure, if you haven't already, that the various internet zones (in IE7 even though you use firefox) are set to default settings rather than custom settings. You should also specifically enter http://www.esato.com into the trusted zones within IE7 if you haven't already.

It's likely that Vista created an override when you set up the ad-hoc network previously which would explain why it worked before but doesn't work now that you're connecting directly to the net via a modem.

Good luck, it might not work but it's the first place to start!

Probably,but i'm not 100% sure. I logged in once with my ps3 on esato and when i returned to my pc to login, esato wouldn't accept my existing cookie and i was logged out.Infact i have never been able to make a common automatic login setting on my ps3 and my pc.Try deleting the cookies on that other pc.
here, have a puff

It's because of the way the internet access was set up. If you use an ad-hoc connection (going through another PC) then everything received over the network would normally have the 'trusted zone' policy applied, meaning that nothing would be blocked unless you have set up specific exceptions. The other PC effectively acts as a proxy server.

Switching to a modem connection on the local PC would mean that the other zones would come into effect, and I was thinking that something might be set wrong within the 'internet zone'.

However, this obviously wasn't the case here so I'm still stumped at the moment!

It has to be a vista thing, I'll have a play with it when I'm next in the workshop. I still don't know a great deal about vista since the vast majority of my work is still sorting out XP problems, not very many of my customers have vista yet.
