Re: What browser is best? Answer this first ????????????

Thank you very much dear Darren. But the problem is Microsoft IE can nicely
go through the ISA server. But mozilla or any other browser can't. I think
there is a different between IE and other browser, the way of requesting.
Is there a way
to make fool Microsoft ISA server and to connect internet using mozilla or
any other browser??????????

Sounds like there is a proxy server between you and the net.  This is
common
especially in corporate environments.  It is fairly easy to make it
transparent to the end user as far as data path goes, however it looks as
though your admins have turned on authentication on that proxy.  There are
several reasons why they may have done this:
1  There may be another proxy that they prefer general users to access that

is filtered or monitored.  That proxy then points to the gateway/proxy with

proper authentication. . . just a possibility.
2  They simply want only valid users accessing the gateway/proxy.
3  Who knows. . .any number of other bone headed reasons. . .

Contact your admins, or check the settings in another browser to make sure
you are pointing to the right proxy, or have it set to detect it properly.

The only thing I can tell you for sure is this is not a Mozilla error.  It
is
definately related to proxy settings.
