MSIE stopped working but Firefox still does

[Guest]

I get the following message on MSIE 6. Does anyone know what to do?

Hi,
316699 - Access Denied By Access Control List Error Message When You Open a
Web Page: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316699

But, that article applies more to dial-up connections.
If you have a broadband connection try this:
Power down the cable (or DSL) modem, router and computer for a few minutes.
Verify (again) that IE> Connections and network settings are as prescribed
by the ISP.
Is there setup software from the ISP that you can reinstall?
(WinXP) You might try creating a new user account to see if that account has
the same problem.

Hope this helps,
Don

My cable modem is connected by ethernet and is always on (I don't need to
log-on).
WMP10 DRM also hasn't been working, but things like Limewire do.
I tried turning it on off for a few minutes but now I am getting this:-
