Thanks, Big Dave (for the welcome and the advice).

I am accessing the unsecured wifi at work. We have open wireless for the guests that come in for meetings, and we have not had to have them set up their laptops for proxy settings. However, no one has come in (until myself) with a wireless PDA. How special, eh?

I do sync on a cradle at home, and didn't know that actually changed the settings. It's very possible that the wifi at work is set up for proxy service. I'll check into it.

One thing that does seem to be working is using Hitchiker...weird, isn't it? I can click to get rid of the proxy check mark all day long and not have it set, yet Hitchiker can connect even with the proxy marked...now I'm beginning to think I've got some other setting wrong and will have to look into it. However, Hitchiker is working, and for right now, that's all that matters.

This site, btw, is terrific! Hope it never goes away.
