I am unable to access www.scotch.wa.edu.au using XP Home
on my PC. Others can access it using XP Professional, or
if using XP Home from a Mac.

It is a school website which was recently completely re-
designed and the webdesigner says it is my computer. I
have tried changing security settings, removing all
internet history and reinstalling XP. The school has
tried to create the problem using a stand alone computer
with a dial-up connection, but they do not have the
problem. I am using broadband cable. Another friend who
is having the same problem is using ADSL cable. We are
both using Internet Explorer.

When I try to access the website, I get the banner across
the top, the headings down the side, and the subheadings,
but they will not open, except for the registration
page. So some of the site comes up, but no
information. The webdesigner and the school both say
they can't help. Can anybody think of what else I can
try.
 
Download & install MS Virtual Machine Build 3805.
Then visit the Windows Update website to obtain the
security updated version (Build 3810).
