Cannot Open Website Question?

Hi:

This website http://www.graingerhonda.com/ou/savannah-honda// I cannot
open with IE on a Sony Desktop with IE 7 installed. I can open this site
with Opera 9.22 with same computer. The site is a redirected site.

Also I can open this website with IE 7 on my Toshiba laptop with no
problems.

I checked the Security Settings on both computers with IE 7 and they
appear to be the same. I have not been able to determine why one computer
will open this site and the other will not with IE7.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi:

I just found the solution myself. It all had to do with Adobe Flash
Player. Apparently it was corrupted and I ran their uninstall tool and
reinstalled in accordance with the following:

Try this first: Instructions for uninstalling and reinstalling the Flash
Player:

2. Before running this uninstaller be sure to read the instruction and close
all running programs.
3. Open the following folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash
4. Run the uninstaller
5. What files are left in this folder? C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash
6. If there are files left, delete the Flash folder.
7. Install the Flash Player from here:

8. Test the Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/

If the Flash Player did not install properly, there may be a permissions
issue within your Windows Registry. Please login as the Administrator (NOT a
User with Admin privileges) and follow these instructions to open the
registry.

Warning: The following solution involves the Windows System Registry.
Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can result in serious
system damage which may require re-installation of the operating system. If
you are not comfortable editing the registry, then take your system to a
professional. If you choose to proceed, then it is essential that you create
a complete system backup and a Windows System Restore Point before
proceeding. Adobe Systems cannot be held responsible for damage resulting
from this information.

1. Select Start > Run
2. Type in "regedit"
3. Right click on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
4. Select Permissions
5. Select Advanced

For Vista

Compare your permissions with the ones in this screenshot. Reply with any
differences that you see.
