I can't view certain web pages on this computer but can on
others. I'm not sure of the common denominator as I can
view SSL sites, ones which use javascript or .asp pages.
One example is www.paypal.com which just gives a page not
found error. Anyone any clues?
 
This could be due to the February cumulative update, 832894. Go to Tools >
Options > Advanced. Scroll down to Security section and uncheck "Use SSL
3.0"

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
