Whichever web application I wanted to record using IE, connection is not made. And this error is displayed "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

I tried recording using other browsers. While using Mozilla Firefox, it worked. While I din't make any change in the vugen settings on which I was getting above problem in IE. Web application got launched and requests are also captured in the vugen script using FF.
Strange thing was that everything was working perfectly on IE as well by the last week. That's why I doubted that there could be some setting which I unintentionally changed in this period or there is some change in the IE side.
I could not locate any vugen setting which I could have changed from the previous successful recording done last week.
When nothing worked out, I turned to IE. I found that IE is not the default browser. I changed it back to default. Still no success.
Now I doubted on some IE security patch which might got updated over weekend. I found one (KB2909210) which got installed over this weekend.
I removed it and other OS and .NET client related updates as well. Still the issue is as it is.
I still don't know what caused the issue. But I got one work around which finally worked -
Recording Options -> Network -> Port Mapping
I added "New Entry" with "All" as server, "Any" as Port, and Record Type as "Direct".
Now Web application started getting launched during recording. the problem as per the first image is no longer there. But still there was no code generated in script Action.
Now I changed the Capture level to "Socket level and WinNet level data" from Port Mapping in Recording Options. And it worked. I got the scripting done on IE.
But I still worder why I had to make this entry, while upto last week it was working with the default settings.
System Configurations-
Windows XP professional version 2002 sp 3
