Help, problems with link.
« on: January 23, 2008, 06:48:12 am »
I thought I had solved the problem with this link.http://biodiesel.infopop.cc/eve/foru,s/a/tpc/f/159605551/m/2001011761]here[/url]?cdra=Y&s=447609751 I mentioned in a previous post that I couldn't access his site and had fixed it by deleting a program. I have also changed security and cookies higher and lower which didn't help. The next day it wouldnt load again. :( This is the only site I am having problems with. I can go to any other website and every thing loads fine. The website will load and work once every 4 or 5 days though and work fine for that session.  ??? If I close out I once again get the "page cannot be displayed notice" Any and all help would be appreciated.

 You've still got a block somewhere on your computer, it seems. I click your link and it works just fine.

  Maybe just try the link without all the extra after the eve ??? That's just one more click with all that extra stuff ???

I doubt he has a block.  More then likely its because of an outdated browser, or even his ISP because of the cc domain extension. Its not being recognized.  One of the other is not configured to deal with the .cc.  I guess in a way its a block, a virtual mental block for the machines.

Onewithwood, I wanted to also say that I checked my original link to the site in my favorites file and that one is working right now also. So, maybe everything is just "workin" right at this time and the problem will be back?


 :( :(Its now 11:22 only minutes after I just posted all is working, and neither yours nor my like will work. I am getting the page cannot be displayed message.

The web address, http://biodiesel.infopop.cc   ends in a .cc instead of the usual .com, .net, .org, and so on. It could be that either your ISP or you system has difficulty resolving the .cc extension.   Since you say you are using millennium addition, I highly suspect your system as I think .cc came into being after the arrival of windows me

  Dana, at the instant you are having problems, can you have a friend or someone try to access the SAME URL, while you keep trying to access the site, as well ???

  This past weekend, the owner had all members validate their email, so he could start screening new people.

  Lots of spam problems, but, could that possibly be your problem ???  I am just thinking out loud. I have no other thoughts to offer.  ??? ???

Dana, have you tried mozilla firefox as a browser. Free download and easy install. I don't know about ME though. I sure like using it. Joe

No I haven't my computer skills are bery basic. I don't try or look for new downloads because I might download something that screws up what I have.

I was wondering is maybe my internet service provider might be the cause of the problem?

Keep the ideas coming. I will make sure to post if this problem become solved so as not to waste anyones time.

                                                      Thanks again, Dana

 I had ME for several years. Had small problems. Microsoft doesn't support it, anymore. No updates to speak of.

  Now, I run XP. It is a better system.

  I had lots of problems with IE, and switched to Mozilla. It is very easy to download and use, and I like it a LOT better than IE. Updates are few and far between, as, hackers do not attack it, like they do Microsoft IE. My problems are nearly non-existent, since I switched to Firefox. Possibly, that could be your problem ??? ???

  Dana, take a chance and download Firefox. We can all hep ya get it working. It's not difficult. Even I did it  ::) ::) ;D ;D

I've run firefox on win98, win98se, win me, win xp, and linux. No problems on any of them. I like it far better than IE.

A possible cause of the problem has just struck me in the head. ;D
I use dial up which is no biggie other than its slower than.. Anyway, we live a 1/4 mile from 3 large a.m. radio towers. The towers have been a constant source of static and at times the station will be heard on the phone line and answering machine. At otherrr times the interference is so bad that the answering machine messages cant be discerened over the background noise. Coincedentally or not the noise has been worse for several weeks now that I think about it.

When and if I can get on the biodiesel forum I going to  hang up and check the quality of the actual phone line signal. Maybe that forum has a lower data strength and my modem can't recover all of it. Even on here sometimes it takes way longer than dial up should to load.

Like I said, it could be your ISP for the previous reason. The .cc extension. I say this because I have seen it before. If its your I.E., downloading firefox and using that will more then likely resolve the issue.

Going to IE 7.0 might help too, if compatibility is a problem.

I am sure you are all getting sick of hearing about this, I'm sorry. I Just downloaded firefox and check if the website would come up. As I have written earlier, until a few weeks ago the website worked fine. I don't see how Windows ME cant recognize the .cc now since it always has.  Anyone know much about internet options and settings? Maybe something there has been checked or unchecked.

If I could get some other website address's that end in .cc I could check if I can get access to them. That would answer if that is the problem.
