I work in an internet cafe and 49 out of 50 computers run IE6 fine. One computer is fine for surfing the internet but has trouble logging into specific sites. Hotmail is the most notable, but it also includes GMX and some others
This is a clean install of IE6, and I have dropped securty settings to almost non existent to accept all cookies etc. When I go to the specific sites I enter userlogin information(which works fine on other comps/browsers) and get a "This page cannot be displayed error"
I hav tried pretty much everything in my bag of tricks. One last thing is he possibility that someone has changed the default routes to the hotmail and other sites. Let me explain. I once played a game at games.swirve.com but could not log in directly to that sight, I had to go to games2.swirve.com so I tweaked a setting somewhere that meant each time I typed games.swirve.com into the browser it linked to games2.swirve.com. Unfortunately the process slips my memory. If anyone can refresh my memory on that one - or has any other ideas on what is causing this error your help would be appreciated. Thanks

ps, my e-mail is (E-Mail Removed) - I have 50 other computers to log into with this address

Check your HOSTS file and see if it is blocking your sites.

Delete all temporary internet files and cookies. Hotmail is very dependent
on cookies settings.
