search for 'HART'

result : error 117 unspecified error.

Wouldn't be worth mentioning if it had always been happening, or I could find the answer at windows update.

I've had trouble searching a web page before, but there were other factors causing it, such as an update to IE that I didn't see happen.

How do I get my search back on a web page ? It fails with any term used, as it has been happening recently. But not on all pages. I suspect just yahoo pages.
 
The search works fine for me.

See above THIS SPECIFIC URL. earlier it was error 117, just now it was error 57. I had no desire to read every word on that page to see what MJHwas up to. So I used the search page option, and CAN'T search that page.This has happened before, but it doesn't happen on EVERY web page, just some pages.
 
Still no problem - even with that specific URL.

The biz.yahoo.com link opened just fine for me. Sorry about that, chief.

I don't know if someone suggested to the OP to clear TIF and try again. (It
also sometimes helps to remove cookies belonging to the website in
