I'm running Windows XP home editon with IE v
I had recently installed the window xp patch against sasser worm. Are also running avast 4.0 anti-virus and Ad-aware 6.0 on my PC. I have found that certain websites that I could access previously, now gave error 'page cannot be displayed.....cannot find server or DNS error". Examples are www.mcafee.com, www.symantec.com, and more. Some others would allow me to the homepage, but any links clicked from the homepage will give above error
In particular, I could get to www.symantec.com.sg, but launching subsequent links from within this homepage (e.g http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.gaobot.aje.html, http://www.symantec.com/region/sg/enterprise/maintenance_renew.html, etc) will end with the above error
Yet, from this homepage, I could launch links like http://www.symantec.com.sg/region/sg/purchase/ and www.symantecstore.com
I tried out above problem links using Netscape, it also fail to access, giving error 'connection is refused when trying to contact www._______.___
Any advice on what to rectify this problem? thanks.
