I have several sites that I can no longer get to since installing SP2. I
can still ping the sites and get good results but can't connect. They are
normal sites.. www.americanexpress.com www.scottrade.com www.wtopnews.com
... and a few others. All other sites still work normally. My other
computer on the same network router, gets to these sites with no problem
(Win2000 pro).
XP pro
Linksys Router
at the bottom of the screen, it says "connecting to www.scottrade.com...
after 15-20 seconds I get the alert.. "The operation timed out when
attempting to contact www.scottrade.com." It does exactly the same with the
other sites.
I have checked my Hosts file, turned off my firewall, cleaned my cookies,
etc. Has anyone with similar problems managed to fix it without
reformatting and reinstalling?? I know that there were several on this and
other newsgroups that had this problem but never saw a resolution. Been
working on this since SP2 came out..
