Hello group.
Here's a situation I've never run into. Computer (practically brand new)
running XP Home, user has AOL as his ISP (I know, I know...) Anyway, a
problem has developed with surfing the web. Say he wants to go to Yahoo.com
or Hotmail.com. It goes there fine opens the page no problem. But when he
attempts to log in with Username/password on these or ANY website requiring
these, he gets "Page cannot be displayed" - instantly by the way. This
occurs in either AOLs interface or if we launch IE 6.0 and try it that way.
I just know this is a security setting of some kind but I just can't figure
out which one: Is it in Internet Explorer? I've looked all over
Tools/Internet Options/General and Advanced. Is it a setting in XP Home
itself? He is the sole user and has Admin rights. Again, he can surf to
and through any site, it's the Uname/password thing that's got us stumped.
How 'bout some clues? Thanks.
