Hi,
    Sorry for the vague subject title.  Right.  I've got a wireless network
setup thats allows, the family computer (the one I'm on now) and my Dads
laptop to connect to the internet.  Now I recently moved back home and
brought my desktop pc with me which is where all the problems start. 

Before I go any further, I'm using D-link hardware (Router and usb adapters).

So everything goes to plan and I see the little green bars in the bottom
right hand corner of my screen telling my the connection strength is
excellent.  Unfortunetly I can't do anything with it.  I can't connect to the
internet or see any other computers that are on the network!

I had my pc connected to the net when I was living elsewhere.  Dunno if that
would have created any problems, my ISP was Blueyonder and my Internet
Explorer still comes up with the legend "Microsoft Internet Explorer provided
by Blueyonder"  even thought I have uninstalled blueyonder.

I have ran throught the troubleshooter with no luck!
