I'm running windows xp professional, and I've been having trouble accessing web-based email services (hotmail, yahoomail, and also a private microsoft exchange server web interface) from my computer. I've tried using both firefox and internet explorer. When attempting to load my hotmail or yahoo inbox in ie, the page simply never loads. When I try in Firefox, I get an error message that reads "the document contains no data." I am able to access my inbox at the exchange server, but am unable to send emails.

I also can't access my online banking (fleet.com), and have had trouble posting to some tech support forums. I thought it was a problem with secure sites, but I am able to access some secure sites.

All of these services are fully available from a friend's computer running on the same internet connection, through the same router, so it's a problem specific to my machine. Any help?

check the security section of these fourms and get the suggested program to check for malware/spyware .

Are you running a proxy of any kind? I run proxomitron & had the same problems before configuring it correctly.

This is a very common problem, and I tried EVERYTHING. Forums all over the world are overflowing with desperate XP'ers banned from their own hotmail, online banks, various other high security sites.

Finally I cracked it. I'm once again accepted into the flock!

Follow the instructions in this to the letter. Every boring step. It's very simply and clearly explained. And it WORKS:

Good luck!

Note: the link came out a bit strange! Go to the Microsoft KB (http://support.microsoft.com), and choose "advanced search". Search by article number - it's 246725.

Hi Guys,
I am having a really bad problem, i Have tryed to view certain websites and i get a page ending in dns error internet explorer,

The site im trying to view is, www.e7even.com

I can view it through anonimizer but not normally, why??????


PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Thnaks Alot,

Parcan.

Parcan, try the steps outlined in the article I mentioned. I had exactly the same problem along with several thousand pariahs, and basically it was resolved. I imagine that you can't access any online bank accounts as well. I hope this works; if not, let us know.

Ok- I would love to follow the advice from microsoft, except I cant even access anything in the microsoft domain - when I do it just claims "waiting for support.microsoft.com" and then goes to a blank page..........can you post that article here?

Thank you!
