bwowser problems vista

[newfdog]

I am having a problem opening some wesites in vista.
Initially I thought it was an IE 7 issue

This site I am trying to open requires entering a user name and password

I could not open the site from day one when i bought my Acer Aspire 9410
laptop with vista pre - installed

I downloaded Mozilla Firefox and was able to enter the website in question.

I did not visit the site in a little while but the last time i went back to
enter the site I could not enter the site from either browser.

Tried MS vista help but every suggestion they recommended I tried with no
succes

Some suggestions were java update problems and /or security settings issues
or widows upate problems

I have tried them all with no success

Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to what is causing the
issue and any possible solutions?

Hi,

Close any/all open browsers. Click start and type CMD, then right click the
cmd.exe entry in the program menu and choose 'run as administrator'. Click
continue at the UAC prompt. From the prompt, run "ipconfig /flushdns"
(without the quotes) and wait for it to complete. Exit the prompt (just type
exit) and retry entering the site. Try using both http and https in the
address bar.

Hi folks,

What Vista 32-bit or 64-bit Ultimate? I am having issues because JAVA JRE
does not support Vista 64-bit applet execution as of yet. Any work around
suggestion from anyone would be helpful! I can't get a help desk for my music
notation software for the website.
