All applications work with the built-in 11b radio. They all worked
with the old (now broken) Netgear Super-G card as well. Everything
*except* IE6 works with the new Netgear Super-G card.

Yes. The new card is a different model so I had to uninstall the old
drivers and install the new. I ran Registry Mechanic afterward to
clean up anything the uninstall missed.

Honestly, IE6 is the only network application that won't work properly
with the new card. I am completely baffled.
