xp user access to internet

I am using XP Home Edition and I am unable to access the internet on limited users. I am able to access the internet ok on the Administrive user. If I change limited users to admin I still can not access the internet. I am using McAfee Security Center and I have tried to turn off the firewall but that does not help.

Sounds like it's some problem with the users account, not with it's rights. Have you tried creating a new user account and try from there? Or can't you do that in XP Home?
I guess, you'll have to find out, what's being used in some form by the user but not the admin. Any ideas?

Greetings,
