    I'm having troubles accessing certain websites.
    www.amazon.com, www.microsoft.com, www.ebay.com are examples.

    Trying to access www.microsoft.com for example promts me to
    Enter UserName and Password for " " at http://Microsoft.com

    After canceling out I get the following error: HTTP 401.2 - Unauthorized: Logon failed due to server configuration.

    Same trouble trying to access www.amazon.com or www.ebay.com. Does not matter what web browser I use: Mozilla, Netscape, or IE.

    ****Almost all other websites I access work like NORMAL.****

    Can anyone help???
