Hi there,

I'm running VMware Fusion (Vista Business 32Bit) on a SR MacBook Pro 17" with 4GB and it is tied in to Bootcamp.

Everything works great and I just had a small question that has been bugging me since I first set it all up. Basically when I run VMWare Fusion, whenever I try to run the Internet Explorer Browser (haven't tried other browsers yet), the first IE window will open saying it can't connect or there is no internet connection. If I go to the address bar and just hit enter (so it tries to load whatever URL is already there), a new IE window will open (there will be a pop up message that I just have to agree to - can't quite recall what it says now since I've learned just to click past it) and that IE will run just fine.

I'm just curious if anybody else has experienced something similar? And if there is a way so that IE will have internet access sort of 'straight away' without my having to 'refresh' it to open a new window.

Thanks for any pointers you can give me!
