Certain websites on my computer will not load anymore
« on: April 23, 2007, 06:43:39 PM »
My computer had started running sluggishly so I ran my SpyBot & AdAware. After which I turned my firewall on (Windows XP supplied). After which Match. com (don't laugh) would not load. I went back and added amtch.com as a trusted website and also turned off my firewall to see if that was the problem. The webpage still will nto load. I have tried typing in the address as well as clicking on a link adn enither will get me to theri website. I haven't noticed any other websites with this problem but I am able to get onto Match.com from other computers.
Any suggestions for this computer novice???

OK, I guess I solved the problem myself. I re-ran AdAware and saw how many cookies were listed as high risk items. I went back into IE and deleted all my cookies under the tools, options. I also depeted all files under here. Then tried pulling up the website and it came up no problem.
Can anyone at least let me know why they think this happened?  ???

The Temporary Internet File folder can get so clogged up your browser will have hiccups...

DLoad and install CCleaner and run it on a regular basis.
