Some web pages i visit I get this crap.

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

More information

This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Internet connectivity has been lost.
The website is temporarily unavailable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click Tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

For offline users

You can still view subscribed feeds and some recently viewed webpages.
To view subscribed feeds

Click the Favorites Center button , click Feeds, and then click the feed you want to view.

To view recently visited webpages (might not work on all pages)

Click Tools , and then click Work Offline.
Click the Favorites Center button , click History, and then click the page you want to view.


Now I've done everything and still I get this crap? Anyone have an Idea why?

Thanks

Josh what connection are you trying to use. Roadrunner with the cable modem or the other connection that they just installed at the complex?

Some bullshit with the (DNS). Scott could explain it if he would like to. Had to mess with command files and configuration.

No problem Josh.

The problem with myspace was when you type in the name to the site it wouldnt respond. I pinged the IP address and connected to the site using the IP. I cleared the cookies and flushed the DNS on Joshes PC.

The second problem was with Ebay and trying to get into MYEBAY. It would come up with a message saying the security citificate has expired and if you clicked on continue it would let you in. I didn't remember what to do to fix that and after reading up a little it seemed like it was a problem with ebay.

Josh try it again tonight and let me know if it works now or not.
