After months of problem-free browsing I'm suddenly getting "This page cannot
be displayed - Error 500" on certain secure webpages. I've checked settings
and can't see what's wrong. Can anyone help please?
 
Hi Peter :-)

Click to expand...

Try the following and see if it helps.

500 errors

Click Tools > Click Internet Options > Click Advanced Tab > Under Browsing
uncheck the "Show Friendly HTTP Errors" checkbox.
Then refresh the page. You should then see a more detailed error.

See the Event log and what it says is the real problem.

Also see the information below:

Also, if you have Java installed, try unchecking it - Internet Options |
Tools | Advanced | scroll down to the section Java Sun and uncheck the box
next to Use Java.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,, that "uncheck of show friendly errors" seemed to do the trick...for
now at least.! I did NOT want to go through a reinstallation yet again!
 
I meant to say - unchecking that box did the trick all by itself, or it was
just a coincidence that things started working again! I thought it was
strange that one https site would give trouble and not another.
