Trouble with Internet Explorer

Hi

Can anybody help, I'm having trouble access some websites (with adult content) I keep getting the stand unable to find screen, but i tried an experiment and was able to access hard core porn sites .

I know this site exist as I've accessed them on my sisters dial up.

The only thing that i've changed recently is that I've changed is that I have istalled 'Spy Sweeper & Spywareblaster'.

I've tried adjusting content advisor but to now avail (including a complete system rebuild after 139 spyware programs )

has anybody got ideas / suggestions


thanks

Re: Trouble with Internet Explorer

I don't understand your message really, so can I attempt a guess at what you're trying to find out..

You want to get onto a site that has mature content (not porn), and the site wont come up. Is it just this one site? Or many?
If just one, what is the URL?

You have tried getting onto a porn site, and it works ok, so you know that adult content isn't being filtered, but want to know why you can't get onto the site that you want to get onto?

the mod reference was towards moderators of this site , it aint anything personal , the reference was towards this being a family site , i.e. nothing to do with porn / hard porn , get my drift , like i said nothing personal just an observation

Re: Trouble with Internet Explorer

If you DO feel the need to visit such sites, just make sure you're wearing your watch on the other wrist, if you need to keep an eye on the time

Re: Trouble with Internet Explorer

IE is carp anyway- get Firefox, it's safer, more secure, less hijack-prone and faster...

Re: Trouble with Internet Explorer

I ran the site that i had problems with Symantic Trace potential attack, which gave me their IPI then used this instead of www. etc and they worked.

So is the a DNS problem out there??
