Internet Explorer can not display the webpage

For some reason IE7 will not display any webpages.
I am online and am on the internet on firefox
What is going on?

I have the same problem ever since the update. I am unable to open web pages
with IE7 but able to use IE6. I was doing pretty well with IE7 until the
update pfffft

I was having a similar problem last weekend. (see post of 2/17/2007). In my
case the problem was with the firewall. But other replies suggested other
remedies which might solve your problem if it is not caused by the firewall.
I turned off the firewall and found that I could connect. Then for some
reason when I turned back on the firewall it continued to work

Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.

I am having difficutly accessing only one webpage using Internet Explorer 7,
but as it's my online banking (www.ybonline.co.uk) it also happens to be one
of the most important...

I cannot access it using Firefox which I also have installed...
I've downloaded the "User Agent String Utility" that is supposed to emulate
IE6, but it doesn't work, even after I've cleared history, cookies and
cache...

I could access the webpage at work, where IE6 is used, but had limited
functionality...

Any more ideas? Only thing I've not done is deinstall IE7 and go back to
IE6....

I can access that site fine, but I don't have an account so I didn't go any
farther.
Check C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc for a file named HOSTS with no
extension. (Not Hosts.sam)
Make sure Windows is set to show hidden files and folders and is NOT set to
hide extensions for known file types.
If HOSTS exists, rename it to HOSTS.OLD
Reboot an try again.

Or, In a Cmd window, enter
ipconfig /flushdns
then clear your TIF also, and re-boot.

Make sure that you have HTTP 1.1 enabled.
(e.g. via Options, Advanced tab, HTTP 1.1 settings section)
I just tested a simulated connection using telnet 80
and couldn't get any response until I made the initial request:

GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: www.ybonline.co.uk

That could be a sign of a problem with your DNS.
Before trying to connect with either browser try making sure that
the lookup has been cached.

E.g. switch to a cmd window (or Run... cmd.exe) and enter:

ping -n 1 www.ybonline.co.uk

Don't worry that the ping won't respond. You only want to see that the lookup
for it was done. So, in fact, you can cancel the ping's timeout with Ctrl-c
provided you see something like this...

<cmd_output>
F:\WINDOWS>ping -n 1 www.ybonline.co.uk

Pinging www.ybonline.co.uk [217.140.43.139] with 32 bytes of data:

Control-C
^C
</cmd_output>

....the lookup could be cached.


In fact, ipconfig /displaydns shows that it has a Time to Live
which would give you ample time for IE to benefit from it:

<displaydns>
www.ybonline.co.uk
----------------------------------------
Record Name . . . . . : www.ybonline.co.uk
Record Type . . . . . : 1
Time To Live . . . . : 2753
Data Length . . . . . : 4
Section . . . . . . . : Answer
A (Host) Record . . . : 217.140.43.139
</displaydns>

And probably was using a different DNS server... ? ; }
Hint: checking the lookup with nslookup (in a cmd window)
would show you one of the DNS server addresses.
If you post them someone might be able to test them for you
(e.g. using nlsookup in interactive mode with set debug )

How would doing that help the Firefox symptom? <eg>


Good luck

Ya, me too. The windows show "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
everytime when I click on the icon. Any method to sole this problem?
Most probably is because of the firewall, when i switch off my firewall, it
can be done, but we cannot switch off the firewall all the time right?
So, I need a permanent and effective way to solve this problem, I'm also
using firefox now, but I prefer IE.
