Best Answer: First try rebooting your computer…

If your still having problems…go to Tools…Internet Options…..Security Tab and adjust your settings.

Re:Are you using Comcast? They've been having DNS issues recently, although it's been okay the last week and a half.

Your HOSTS file may be compromised by spyware or a virus. Please follow the my detailed spyware removal instructions here: http://theflyingpenguin.com/spyware-removal.shtml

You should also run a full virus scan FROM SAFE MODE.


Re:Can use your search feature within Windows or does it come up blank? If it comes up blank try doing regsvr32 jscript.dll

I had the same problem..could not log onto my banks site.

I ended up reformatting. so I never did figure it out.

I was thinking about doing that as a last resort. But why would it happen to two comps. my desktop and my lap top??
Maybe I can try my laptop out at work…


Re:I tried disabling the winxp firewall, but it had no effect on this problem.
I'm wondering if ther is something in the router. It's a Linksys, which I have at default settings. I wonder if ther are some ports or something set to block out certain sites???
