I am late in getting back here, have tried so many settings in IE & in
KIS...and probably made things worse.
I tried booting without add-ons with the same result.
I think a possible problem is I have Security restricted Zones set to
high,
and cannot figure out a way to re-set to a lower setting, and don't know
why
that is? My laptop is set to med-high.
Does it help at all to know that I have completely disabled KIS and still
cannot get anything but a blank window -Which, with my limited knowledge
tells me that I have somehow messed up somewhere in the Internet Explorer
settings.
But- since I know so little, don't know if that could be it, but perhaps
you
do.
Showing my ignorance but need help, so will admit that I don't know what
you
mean when you said to go into safemode with networking... but maybe that
means with my cable still connected while going into safemode?
I see you also said to reset IE7 & see if that works.... I admit I forgot
about trying that yet.
I have spent hours literally comparing the IE settings on my laptop
againest
the IE settings on my desktop pc (that has the problem) Have also tried
to
compare all settings with KIS too. But- since I still can't get the
comcast
homepage to load,etc. even when I have disabled KIS completely, do you
think
this IS an issue with IE7?
FWIW- what are the odds that uninstalling & reinstalling IE 7 would work
out? I had IE 7 on this pc when I bought it, keep Windows Updates
current,
and now do have SP3 on it as well.
Sorry for the stupidity, but hope you can advise me further. Thank you.

Suddenly 'something' seems to have changed & I cannot get to my e-Mail
through Comcast.net. The url is
http://smartzone.comcast.net
It appears to be loading quickly as normal, but I can't get past the
'loading'....
I am assuming it has to be a setting I inadvertly changed since I can
access
fine if I use the latest Verison of Firefox instead of IE.
Can anyone tell me where in Internet Options I should look, and what
settings could have affected this?
This is way over my head, so assuming it has to be something with IE,
and
not with my AV (Kaspersky Internet Suite 7.0) or Spybot Search & Destroy
which I also have on my pc. I haven't used Firefox in the past tho, so
don't know how that browser works differently with KIS or S &D, or even
IF
it does.
Note; i also tried to access
www.photobucket.com where I have an
account.
I received access denied.
Can someone help me please? Thank you very much.
