This is a strange problem that seems as if it should have to do with privacy or security settings, but nothing I do can correct it. I use a cable connection and have no problems connecting to any sites, except for an online casino I frequent often. I get to the hom epage, yet when trying to sign on, the page sits there and then come up with the "The Page Cannot Be Displayed" error page. I do not have a firewall and I have reset all my security and privacy options at the lowest level. I have emptied all Temp files and cookies.
Now for the strange part, which tells me it's not the browser settings. When I log in using a dial-up connection, I can log into my personal page on the site (albeit slowly), without timing out. I have called the site and they blame my ISP because I can get in thru dial-up. I call my ISP and they blame the site, because all signals are strong that they can see.

Any hints from the good people on this site???

WinME
900 Mz
256 Ram
AdAware and Spybot run religiously
IE6.0.26
Charter Pipeline ISP

I also went to IE <Tools>, <Internet Options>, <Privacy> and <Edit Websites>, added the particular website and clicked "Allow" to overide any cookie restrictions. No help..........

Download Hijackthis.
Save it to a folder on your hard drive.
Unzip the file.
Scan your machine, then click on Save Log.

Post a copy back here and someone will be happy to review it.

Don't make any changes until instructed to do so.

This will fit on a floppy so use another computer to download it.

 

[sdtex]

No need to use another computer, Cybertech, this one works fine, as I said in my post.......except for the secure site I mentioned. (And possible others that I haven't tried yet, but the majority are just fine!!)

So here's my HJT log and thank you in advance...........

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

You can use HJT to fix this one. Everything else looks ok

 

[sdtex]

Thanks but how do I fix it. I found the file that read "R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing". I clicked on Restore, but all it did was put the same line back in.......is it supposed to read "R3 - URLSearchHook: XTSearchHook Class - {6E6DD93E-1FC3-4F43-8AFB-1B7B90C9D3EB} - (no file)" as it did in the original????

 

[cybertech]

Run HJT again and check:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

Close all applications and browser windows before you click "fix checked".

 

[sdtex]

Reviving this post after dealing with some personal family issues............anyway, here is a new HJT file. I did as Cybertech suggested and i tlooks to me that "R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing" is now fixed.

However my original problem still exists in that my cable connection cannot open certain websites.............Please review my previous posts so that we don't duplicate efforts. Thanks to all who lend a helping hand, but I would really like to resolve this.

Download Registrar Lite from here:
http://www.resplendence.com/download/reglite.exe

Put it in its own folder. You may want to keep this program. It is an excellent free, registry editor.

Copy and paste the follow text into the address bar, then hit 'Go':
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\URLSearchHooks

In the pane on the right are the values associated with that key.
We want to remove this one -> {CFBFAE00-17A6-11D0-99CB-00C04FD64497}_
Notice the underscore at the end, all the others with that need to go as well.

Right click on it, and select delete.
If you get a confirmation question, respond OK then close out the program.

I'm sorry, Cyber, but I can't get into the site to download "reglite". Is there another place I can download it from?? Thanks!!

 

[cybertech]

What happens when you try to get there?

 

[sdtex]

Well, it's strange. I got the "Cannot find" page that was the reason that I started this thread in the first place. I just now tried to download the file from my laptop.......and it worked perfectly. I saved the file and wonder if it would work by downloading it to a floppy and loading it on my desktop that's having the problems. I'll try that and report the results. Thanks for hanging with me on this...........
