Howdy,

Page Cannot Be Displayed

Check to see if the sites are listed here, if so delete
them. Go to: Windows\System32\DRIVERS\etc. In the right
pane open your hosts file using Notepad. Note: Some XP
users have found renaming the Hosts files folder works as
well.

Excerpt from a MS-Article

To resolve this problem, delete the Index.dat file in
Internet Explorer:

In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet
Options. On the General tab, under Temporary Internet
files, click Delete Files. On the Delete Files dialog box
message that is displayed, click OK .

Under History, click Clear History. On the Delete all
items in your History folder? dialog box, click OK. Quit
Internet Explorer.

Log on to the computer by using the account of a user who
does not experience the problem, and then open a command
prompt. Change the directory to the following path:

drive :\Documents and Settings\Username\Local
Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5
Type del index.dat , and then press ENTER. Exit the
command prompt and then restart the computer.

The Index.dat file is re-created the next time that you
log on to the computer.
