Which Windowblinds are you using? I am not sure whether I fully understand you. Do you mean that you can't connect to the net when you use the tray for Wincustomize? Or do you mean that you can't see any webpages when you are running Windowblinds? Please try to formulate your problem a little bit more in detail

And on another note: On the Internet; using capital letters the way you did is considered shouting. You can be sure that more people will try to help you if you dont yell at them .

windowblinds 4.4,----when i click on the internet explorer icon, the internet is suppose to come up. even if i would not have a connection, it should still come up. well, it comes out for like a split second and then it disappears. i can try to open it as many times as i want. it will only pop up for not even exagerating half a second. if not a quater of a second. but when i right click on the windowblinds icon and select unload windowblinds and i get back the old tool bar, i get internet!? i dont know if maybe it can be a network setting or security but i got everything in default.

DO you have any toolbars installed with Internet Explorer? I know that WindowBlinds works very well with IE, but I also heard of problems with some toolbars installed. Try and uninstall any toolbars from your Internet Explorer through "add and remove programs" in the windows control panel.

If you haven't installed any toolbars yourself it might be that they were installed illegally by some spyware-program (IE is notorious for that). If you haven't already, download "Spybot Search&Destroy" (free) here http://www.spybot.info/en/spybotsd/index.html and install and run it on your system.
