I cannot reach any web sites using Internet Explorer since installing Windows XP Service Pack 2 two weeks ago. MSN messenger works fine (as do some other programs that access the internet for updates) but Explorer fails to make a connection every time. If I restore my PC to before the Service Pack 2 installation Internet Explorer works fine. I have tried downloading SP2 and also installing from a CD. The outcome was the same each time. The error message I keep seeing is the usual : "The page cannot be displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings ....blah blah". I even tried installing Mozilla, but got nowhere. Any one else had this ? All help would be gratefully received.
