Rupert Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Hi,Recently tried Firefox as an alternative Browser but have now un-installed it and reverted to IE 6.Although my Destop Internet shortcuts still work, each time one connects, I get a message 'Windows cannot find http://...site name make sure that you have typed it correctly'Anyone know how I might stop this message.Also, if I un-install IE 6, how do I re-install it.Thanks in advance.Rupert.

andsome Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Internet Options/Programs. Then make IE the default browser. I found out that when I tried Firefox, it became the default browser and I had the same problem as you.While you are at it, why not download IE 7?

Thought it was something to do with IE7 so tried Firefox which just kept locking up.eBay pics still wont load with IE6 anyway.Regards,Rupert.

Coreper Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 the not-laoding eBay pictures are possibly caused by your firewallwhich one do you have?you can find out if it is caused by your firewall, by disabling it, going to ebay and if the pics still arent loaded.... sometihng weird is happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 You can add e-bay to a safe list. It will probably allow you to upload pictues without disabling your firewall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
