internet explorer...

if i type in a url address i get "page cannot be displayed" i click back, then i click enter again and sometimes it happens a few times, but then i can connect to a web page. this also happens, for example, if i am replying to a topic, "page cannot be displayed" so i click back and try again and it will work after a few times. i am also getting alot of images such as emoticons and other images that are just red x's. any ideas?

 

Messed up stuff like that used to happen on my office computer, so I just stuck FireFox on it.

 

ya firefox is a good program, worked for me also

 

what is firefox?

 

tools->internet options->Connections->Lan Settings

*ensure no check marks*

if this doesn't work get back to me

 

Firefox is another browser. Far superior to IE imo.

kevin...what do u think about firefox?

 

I am not kevin, but I will tell you that Firefox is awesome.

 

I think that'll pretty much be the consensus of most of the people here.

 

so i just download it...and its like another internet explorer?

 

It's like internet explorer, only minus the spyware and virus'

 

Plus tons of useful extensions!

 

so downloaded firefox, and it works no better than my internet explorer. i have NO clue what is up with my internet connection, still saying page cannot be displayed. leanne plugs her laptop into the internet and it works fine. x eleventy billion and one.

 

so your computer sucks ass again

 

Computers > You

 

yeah my computer DOES suck ass again....and i forgot to call u kevin to come take a look at it. but on the bright side its FAST like REALLLLY fast but i just cant get onto internet explorer

 

reinstall ie you'll be fine

 

how do i go about that...i tried but i didnt want to permenantly delete it
