IE trouble - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

soccerchamp76 · 04-04-2004, 04:45 PM

Recently when I go to a website it says Page Unavailable and I have to hit "refresh" for it to display. This happens on about 50% of the websites I visit. Any explanation?

P.S. Ad-Aware/Spybot found nothing.

Windows XP Home (happens on my laptop as well which is XP Pro)
IE 6

What are you using for internet? That would be where I would start if it is happening on two different machines

Wait... More than one machine is doing this? How is the connection being routed? I would check the router first, I doubt both of the machines started doing it at the same time...

the same shit is happening at work... sometimes i think it's due to internal network traffic.... but i dunno.

I just cna find no reason to why this is happening. I have tried almost everything and nothing seems to work....hmph.

does more than one machine do it? my computer used to do it a while back when we first got DSL. I had to get a friend to do something in command prompt to fix it, but after that everything worked. something with the ports and other stuff.

it sounds like the timeout limit is set too low. have you tried setting that higher? i don't remember where to reset this option, maybe someone else knows, sorry.

Try another browser just to see if the problem carries over. Then you can narrow down whether or not its IE or something else that causing it.
