I am using HP V2 machine

thanks in advance

This is not really a mozilla problem.

I guess this is your default start page.

Check if you need to set a proxy, check your name resolution, check if you have a firewall somewhere that is blocking this connection.

thanks for your reply

can tell me how to do these things

[Torsten.]

proxy is set up in the mozilla properties window

check name resolution
# nslookup www.yahoo.com

regarding the firewall:
ask your network people

You should look into using firefox instead.
(You may have the same issues.)

now i got this
bash-3.1# nslookup www.yahoo.com
Using /etc/hosts on: HBPTCD10

looking up FILES
*** No address information is available for "www.yahoo.com"

DNS is not configured - that's your problem.

Several ways to set this up, one of them is

# set_parms addl_netwrk
