Some Websites Knock Me offline?
« on: November 14, 2007, 08:40:11 PM »
Hi
I have Windows XP and a Dell Inspiron Laptop. I use DSL.
Today this started and I didnt do anything like change settings etc, it just started itself.
Some webpages I go to every day with no problems in the past now knock me offline. I click and get the " This webpage is unavailable offline, please click connect to view" and I click connect and it connects a second and then goes baclk offline.
I am going nuts!
I cleared all my caches, history, offline content etc etc. I ran all my spyware programs and virus scans and still I am messed up.
Any idea on why and how to fix?
Much  appreicated.

The best way to find out, if it's your IE problem, or something else is to install another browser, but...the decision will be yours.

Did you install DSL filters on ALL the phone jacks in your residence ? ?
Notice getting kicked off when the phone rings lately ? ?

Call your ISP and have them run a line check...
