"Cannot display page"

[Euh]

Hi there,

My IE works fine for most webpages but when I try to connect to some
specific sites, I often get the "cannot display page" error. If I
refresh several times or close IE6, it will eventually connect to the
webpage. I'm on a DSL connection.
Any advice ?

In my yesterday's post, I had posted a similar question. I too am on DSL and
when I refresh the page a couple of times, the page is loaded.

Looks like a DSL problem because I never faced a similar problem earlier
when I had a broadband connection.

Can Euh and I get some help here?

Thanks in advance.

Try totally clearing your History and TIF files - if they are too large or
corrupted, this could cause the problem you are seeing. Instructions here:

If no joy, try clearing the cookie(s) for the sites in question, and also
see if your Hosts file might be involved.
