There might be a problem with either or both the windows explorer or internet explorer. Firefox has nothing to do with this. Did this happen after you updated windows or something like that??\n\nYou can remove IE7 and see if it works. Also, check the below help articles from Microsoft:\n\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/293623\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/811266

you can go to the ....\n\nMozilla Firefox:\nTools --> Options\n\nInternet Explorer:\nTools --> Internet Options\n\n\nYou will have to specify what you mean by "fix" though.

Reinstall IE. \n\nIf you have windows XP, then click on start -> control panel -> add remove programs -> add remove windows components\n\nthen check IE and click on next. \nonce installation is complete, then restart your system.

Try to restart your computer. If that doesnt work out then uninstall the browser and reinstall the browser once again. Firefox is one of the good browsers you can use.

I've experienced the same problem as you are, and in fact I did exactly what you did - virus checks, adware and spyware checks etc. I was stumped; I even meticulously went through my Internet Explorer 5.0 settings to see if there was anything there that might disrupt communication from my router. I was considering reinstalling Explorer (or better, getting Mozilla Firefox) when along comes Internet Explorer 7, which I promptly downloaded, and viola, Bob's your uncle. All problems resolved.

Your Internet explorer has been corrupted. So you repair the operating system whatever it is. It will check this problem.

You can download firefox or Netscape browser, then uninstall IE and redownload IE manually from the Microsoft website and then re-install IE.  I think that is your best solution.  Otherwise there's always Microsoft support to help you with their cd-rom.

You might want to try downloading Internet Explorer 7 again.  Uninstall your current version, and install the newly downloaded one.  Or before you decide to do that, consider getting firefox instead.  Go to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ and download and install the latest version.\n\nAdditional help for this issue may be reached by contacting kevinarbogast@yahoo.com\n\nIf I am unable to help you, please visit http://www.cybertechhelp.com/\nsurely they can help you out!

I am using Firefox and had no problems loading the page, perhaps you should think about downloading it and using that instead of IE.

Sounds like you have a bigger problem.  Mainly your network connection must be dropping for IE to attempt dial-up.  Check the following in IE:  Tools|Internet Options|Connections\nI would guess that it says "Dial whenever a network connection is not present".  Change it to "Never Dial".\n\nThat will prevent the dial up from happening but it still sounds like your cable is the bigger problem as it is dropping your connection to cause the dial-up to connect.

Have you rebooted recently? Internet explorer isnt a very good browser by the way. Get yourself firefox at http://getfirefox.com/ -- Its so much better.
