I'm running IE6 with all updates and I also have ad aware,
spybot, spy sweeper and anti virus software. I've cleaned
up tons of stuff and I have no problem getting on the
internet. Every so often when I'm on one page, yahoo for
instance, and I try to click a link or a previously viewed
page, I get the page cannot be displayed error message.
Aif I refresh the page about three times, it finnaly comes
up. Any ideas?
 
Me too! Many of my favorites and links from with
sites come back with page cannot be displayed. But just
like you it takes 3-4 times before the page comes up.

HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
The same situation is happening to me, also. However,
when I try to visit certain websites, no matter what I do
I can't get to them. I always get the "Page cannot be
displayed" message. I know these website's work, and I
was able to visit them only a few weeks ago, and now they
will not load no matter what I do. I have no idea why
this is happening. If anyone could help I would
appreciate it.

Click to expand...

Check for a file named HOSTS with no extension (not Hosts.sam). It may be a
hidden file. Open it with Notepad and remove any line referencing the site.
Or, rename HOSTS to OLDHOSTS
