Dear all

i recently upgraded to IE6 and i did not have that problem
when i had IE5 and IE5.5. I am running win200 and i am
sitting behind a firewall and a proxy. Everytime which i
load IE6 the homepage (google) displays the error mesage
The page cannot be displayed, then if i hit refresh it
works ok...if i type in any other web sites it works
fine....any suggestions?...thank you in advance

I have looked through the knowledge database and i found
only an article which solves the problem for OS prior to
Win2000
