Page cannot be displayed

[Brian]

Hi All,

Got another problem that I cant seem to get around.

Im using IE6 on Win ME and I can connect to the Internet
with no probelms. However, when I click on the IE6 icons
(does not matter which one), I get the infamous 'Page
cannot be displayed bit'. I also cannot get onto anything
else such as Norton Anti Virus Live Update either.

I have ran an IE6 repair and re-installed both that and
Win ME. A system restore did not change anything either.

Any ideas?

I am trying my best not to have to re-format this system.

Thanks in advance.

Brian

Open the Internet Options applet in Control Panel.
On the Advanced tab uncheck "Enable third party browser enhancements".

Then eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
