OS And IE 8: Cannot Access My Credit Union Online Site
Dec 29, 2009
My laptop with Vista Home Premium x64-bit OS and IE 8 cannot access my credit union online site since the site was upgraded. The site has a provision to check browser support. When I do, I get: Browser version - unknown 0.0, OS - Win NT, SSL Key Size - 128 bits. When I check my version of IE 8 by going to About Internet Explorer, I get IE 8, Version 8.0.6001.18865, Cipher Strength 256-bit, Update Version 0, plus a product ID. The credit union thought is was due to the cookies setting, etc. and/or the Internet Options security settings. Then, I recently went to Wells Fargo's web site to register a gift card and basically the same thing happened. It said my browser was not supported and I needed to upgrade to IE 8. When I used its test, it said I had Default 7.0 browser. I then thought that I had some corrupted files in IE 8, so I tried to download and install IE 8 from the Microsoft site. Got a message that said: "Setup cannot continue because a more recent version of IE has been detected on this computer". Don't know how or why I have a more recent version of IE 8 than what is being distributed my the Microsoft website. I have another computer in my motorhome with XP and IE 8. Used it and I was able to access both sites. Checking its version, I get IE 8, Version 8.0.6001.18702, Cipher Strength 128-bit, Update version 0. My question after this long description is, is the cipher strength the culprit and if so, how do I correct it? Or could it be something else?
'You don't have permission to access this site...'That's what my browser (IE 8) says. Who is forbidding me to access any site? Is it possibly the owner of the site?
I bought a new pc with Vista-64 ultimate OEM installed. But now I discovered that I cannot use it, because I need Cisco VPN IPSec Client to connect to work, and Cisco does not support Vista 64. So my question is. Can I get a refund on Vista, or a credit toward purchase of XP Pro, or can I resell Vista to someone else?
I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC(32-bit OS). About two weeks ago, I was online when my power went out and my laptop shut down(no battery). It powered back up afterward with no problem but a few hours later when I tried, it would not go online. It cannot find any networks in my area. The message I get is "This computer does not have a wireless network adapter installed and configured." It suggests I install wireless networking hardware and verify the correct drivers are loaded. When I click that(Troubleshoot Driver Problems), it tells me to update the driver through Windows Updates. However when I do that, I'm told that I'm already running the most up to date driver.
The problem is not with my router/ISP. My husband's laptops are online with no issues. I'm not the most technologically savvy person so this is beyond my expertise.

I am currently using windows messanger 2009 i never had this problem before.
When online, it was freezing, and I then turned it off because it won't allow me to shut off using the Start button. I then turned it on, and the statement appeared on the black screen.
I wanted my own introduction for a reason, to get my web-site out to other members. I plan on being on this site for a long time, I consider myself a valueable member but that's yet for you kind people to tell.
I'm 15 years old and live in PEI, Canada. I grew up around technology at my hands, I've experimented with it, diagnosed and fixed my own issues, learned from other people and asked for information online that for some reason I remember as a pose to my academic stuff. There's something about technology and especially computers that calms me down, it's my area, you know? Well, anyways. The link below and in my sig is my blog, that blog will be updated often with tips, tricks, tutorials, reviews and more with anyting relating tech. My e-mail which will also be posted below is for anyone who wants to become a part of an online tips, tricks, tutorials and reviews site or has any requests or general questions about me, my site and what I know and do.
My future plans are to build my own desktop computer by the end of the summer, I'll be saving up all my money from here to then to do this. However, I'd be doing it now but I recently bought a playboy cell-phone and that took a chunk out of my change, well, my familys change which I basically use as my own. I'm getting a full-time job in the summer to start building computers. My further goal is to start my own business, building and repairing computers. Sounds crazy considering I'm 15, doesn't it? Well, yeah, I know but I know I can do it. The most I've done though is swapped out hard-drives on my notebook computer and swapped out ram on my own.
I would like to know how to stop these extremely annoying pop ups that ask something about allowing a program to connect to a particular website. In the title bar of the pop up it says," set web site rule" They aren't advertising pop ups. They are pop up windows generated by my own computer seeminglhy to try to get my permission about something. It gets to where I am doing nothing but clicking on the buttons of those pop ups as they come up one after the other after the other. It practically makes me want to throw my computer across the room!!!
the first problem that I have had since using Vista. I use Snapfish to upload pictures from my digital camera. I have had no trouble getting into that site until yesterday. Now I cannot load www.snapfish.com, but I can load all other web sites that I normally use. I've re-booted the computer and the modem, and run the Vista diagnostics, but cannot find the reason for being able to load any other web site but not www.snapfish.com. I am able to load it using a Wi-Fi laptop, but not using my desktop.
Site appears as a Red x and when you hover over it you only get CLICK TO FOLLOW LINK. The sender is in the Safe Sender List and all possible settings have been checked as to the cause. Running Vista Ultimate 32 Bit. It is not a firewall setting and nor is the router firewall doing this. Identical machine with identical software runs perfectly as far as displaying HTML E-Mails in all their glory.
When I first saw this, I had to do a double take. I made sure it wasn't April 1 at least three times before I conceded. While looking around Encarta's homepage today, I stumbled on a message that Microsoft was getting rid of MSN Encarta completely: "On October 31, 2009, MSN Encarta Web sites worldwide will be discontinued, with the exception of Encarta Japan, which will be discontinued on December 31, 2009. Additionally, Microsoft will cease to sell Microsoft Student and Encarta Premium software products worldwide by June 2009." Looks like employees at Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica will be throwing parties tonight.
I have been installing Warhammer Online yesterday to try the game out and everytime i try to install it nothing happens and my computer begins to be slow. Then today it suddenly worked and i began to play for like 3-4 hours. Then i got a disconnect from the server and i couldnt log on no more. Suddenly the game didnt worked at all and suddenly out of nowhere i cant log on MSN.
Im also playing League of Legends which i cant play either now. It says that im not online and so do MSN. The only thing who thinks im online is Skype which works fine. My internet and connection is fine too alltho i cant go to League of Legends, Hotmail and Warhammers homepage lol. Now i cant check my emails .
I got this nice new computer for christmas to replace our old crappy laptop but when i game, periodically it will freeze the game for no particular reason this happens on all the online games i play such as: counter-strike(and source), Starcraft, warrock, soldier front, and others
i know for a fact that it is not my internet is not the problem it is very good comcast high speed and i used the same modem on the laptop, where it worked smoothly plus it is not a memory problem. for not only does it have 4 GB of memory, it still lags even when i close all programs, including windows live and AVG in the bottom bar. i can really only assume it is a problem with vista. its sad though, i knew xp like the back of my hand but with vista im near clueless XD
I am a budding photographer, and I have Windows Vista Home Basic on my pc. What would be the best way for me to secure my files, and make sure I dont lose everything if my computer crashes? I have about 50 gb of data, and few video clippings also. My data mainly consists of my precious photographs that I clicked all thoroughout. I was thinking about online backup. Will that be reliable?
i have a 8800gtx ko and nvidia 680isli mother board and 64bit vista. i install evrything but then something comes up when i want to play online about unsupported o.s
i have vista 64 bit but can not find icon for live tv! on my vista 32 bit i see it but on 64bit i cant find it is there different versions or is there a way to activate it
I just got a new laptop that is vastly superior in hardware to the laptop it replaces. It is loaded with Vista Ultimate and the laptop it replaces is loaded with XP Pro. I have reloaded Vista Ultimate on the new laptop to get a fresh install without bloatware. The Vista Ultimate laptop is much slower Internet browsing with constant time outs with Firefox and with Thunderbird email. I am having to refresh pages almost every other time I got to another page. The XP machine blows this machine away as far as surfing is concerned.
I have 2 computers attached to a linksys router. The computers are online but can't ping each other, and I can browse the other computer and access the shared files. Under sharing and discovery on both I have Network discovery on File Sharing on Public folder sharing on Password Protected sharing off Do you know what I need to do?
Im a First timer for PC games and Exspeically Halo for PC, but anyways i got this game when i bought my PC from www.cyberpower.com (good PCS) but the game i got with it is a bit confuseing because it tells me to sign in to windows live (first time encountering this site) i know its used for Xbox Live but i do not own one, but i made an account and the game loaded up and :::.... (steps on what it did and i did)
Step1: I Clicked the "live" option
Effect: it told me to choose your Profile, so i did
Step 2: I finally got through all the "join live" registration but yet it keeps asking me NOTE (im online during all this).
Effect: i waited for the windows live registration to pop up and then soon after i pulled the halo game screen back up and it went to full screen it said "sign in to LIVE" so i did and submitted, soon after it said "downloading profile (this could take a few minutes) and, it finally did it and it ASKED ME TO UPDATE HALO 2 or else it will sign me out and as i did it simply told me it was unable to update and told me to check my connection.
When I try to access Media Centre's online section I get the message that i need an internet connection. I have anup to 8Mb broadband connection which gets used every day with no problem by IE7, Outlook and several other packages with no problem. I have tried switching off Virus checkers, firewall and spyware checkers but this makes no difference.
My emails would send and receive fine until this morning. Now Windows Mail keeps asking me for my user name and password, and not accepting the one I enter. I know I am entering the correct info because I have checked with the document I keep that information on. Also, I am able to log in at the att site. If I close the window asking for the info I get this error message -
Account: 'mail@att.net', Server: 'fpostoffice.isp.att.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR authorization not enabled', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18
It hs been a bit sporadic. For example I just hit Send/Receive three times in a row. The first two times it went fine, the third time it asked fo my info again.
I have an ftp site and I have a short term need for a number of not so computer literate people to download items from it. I'd like to be able to send a link in email and have them all just click and go to the site - or - just have a download start. The extent of my http knowledge stops with setting up the site and paying he bill.
I have been reading and posting on this forum for a while now.. probably 2 months? All of a sudden, starting yesterday, when I try to browse here to this forum, IE and Firefox both tell me they can't find this site. If fact, it takes me to a site with a similiar name.. vista64.com with no x. This only happens with this forum and one other and only from home on this computer. I can browse all over the place on the internet without a problem. I have no problem browsing here from work. I have made no changes or updates on the computer within the last 48 hours. I downloaded the latest IE security update from Windows this morning which allowed me here for one session and then went back to telling me the site didn't exist. Windows Defender full scan says all clear, Norton says all clear. I have also cleared my cache on both browsers and cookies as well. The only reason I got here now is because I accessed a cached site on a google search, which sometimes works and sometimes not.
A client of mine has not been able to connect to his banking web site(status bar says "waiting for..." but never loads the page.I made a house call today to determine the cause. Here are the things I've tried:
I have tried creating a new user account--did not help.Besides IE8, I have tried FireFox, Google Chrome, and Safari--did nothelp Rebooted his wireless router--did not help Connected to his wireless network with my laptop--my laptop has no problem loading web site . Tried disabling McAfee Firewall--did not help. Checked to see if web site is listed in McAfee's blocked IPs or IE 8s Restricted Sites--it is not Checked the Hosts File--it has no entries. Deleted Temporary Internet Files and Cookies--did not help
Currently I have the laptop at my house connected to my wireless network--still will not connect to his banking site Typed in a free proxy server address in IE LAN settings--I CAN load the web page. What can be blocking this web site? I've run out of ideas. I don'tthink use of a proxy server is a good long term solution.
I tried to get on to Genes Reunited,to which i am a member & the web pages comes up,i put in my email addy & password to gain access to my tree,i click on the button for my family tree & once on there my tree isn't there,it's gone,just a blank page. All it says is please select & click on my tree & nothing i click on it again & again & nothing it's gone, all 3,000 names everything! I also tried to get on to my contacts trees & still nothing. I contacted Genes Reunited them & they said there is nothing wrong with it. I went to my friends & used her laptop & i can view my tree from there.
I also got my dad in England to enter my details & password & everything is fine. I just can't understand what has happened i do everything like i always do,no matter where in the world i am,but for it to vannish is very strange......Can anyone help me? Being a computer idiot dosen't help i know,but we all have to start somewhere. I was so happy on windows 98 until i bought a new llaptop with vista on it! [Wish i hadn't] All i want is to do my family tree, idon't use it for anything else. Is this a common thing to happen when using Vista?
I cannot send a picture from another site, I don't know why. For example, I see apicture on another site and want to send it by e-mail to another person, so I right click and then click on send e_mail and no e-mail option comes up. I usd to do this all the time now I can't. Shouldn't a create-mail come up with the attacment of the picture and I then put in who I want to send it to?
I'm trying to download some Windows Mail Stationery from the Microsoft site. showing up on my computer after I install it. At first I was just clicking on what I wanted, and then selecting to run. It went through and seemed to install normally. Note: I have UAC turned off. Also even though the download page says Windows Mail when it finishes installing it says Outlook Express. I have also tried installing it via clicking to save and then running after, along with right clicking it once downloaded and selecting to run as adminstrator (even though I am the administrator).
I know about the different storage folders. (I have the hidden folders viewable.) I have looked in both folders and the stationery that I just downloaded is nowhere to be found. Just to be sure I tried two different files and they both seem to install fine but don't show up anywhere. I have downloaded other Windows Mail stationery from another site and it puts it right where it's supposed to go and works fine. Is there something I'm missing here? Could there be another folder that it's installing into other than the two I know about? (the one under common files and the one under appdata - don't feel like typing the whole paths) I did see something about a Windows Live stationery folder but I don't appear to have that one on my computer.
I have developed a complex web site and would like to have one mp3 (or other type) piece play throughout the various pages of the site without restarting the music anew when the page changes. Is this possible? If so, how?
Since I have played them all, it seems I am bound to get this one. I was hoping we wouldn't have another WWII title but, what the heck, I am willing to give it a try since there is nothing else out there that interest me right now.
I don't play online but I am hoping a friend of mine will have interest and we can start doing Co-op missions together, this will be the beginning of my Online Experience (if Co-Op can be called Online! ).
