Lately when I try to access password websites (like
hotmail) IE brings up a page that says "Page Cannot be
Displayed". Other than that, I can browse the internet as
usual. Any takers?
 
I've seen this recently myself. Using a network sniffer, I
was able to determine that IE was mangling the path for
the file thus making it invalid hence the page cannot be
found message. In my case the base directory of the path
was repeated three times. Unfortunately I don;t have an
answer for you. If you have a sniffer, you might check to
see if you are seeing the same problem.
 
You Cannot Access Your MSN E-mail Account or Authenticate with a Web Site in
Various Programs
When you try to access your MSN e-mail account, you may receive the
following error message:
The page cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be
experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser
settings... Cannot find server or DNS Error
You cannot successfully authenticate with a Web site in various programs
(for example, Windows Media Player). For example, you may be prompted for
your user name and your password several times, and you may receive the
error message that is described in this section or an other error message
from the Web site that indicates that you cannot access even after you type
the correct user name and password.
