Page loading WTF???

[sugar]

Can somebody please figure this out. When loading web pages in IE or NS
the pages will load normally for the first few times then i
consistantly start to get "Page cannot be displayed messages" .
Have even replaced my computer to try and fix this but last night using
my new computer for the first time, it started again.
Strange thing is.........if i connect my work laptop (via same line and
server) everything works fine. What is going on???

any help welcome

thanks

Hi,
If only IE were involved, I'd advise this:
First, clear the IE cache. IE> Tools> Internet Options> General> Delete
files (and delete offline content when that dialog pops up) It's often
recommended that the TIF folder be kept at about 50 MB (Settings.)

Malware could also be a cause. See these sites for help:

But...
Since two browsers are affected, I'd be looking at third-party security
programs like firewalls, ad-blockers, privacy programs, etc. One of them may
need to be updated, reinstalled or reconfigured.

Hope this helps,
