    Hello Folks,

    While you are at it, I am having a problem to open this site: http://designpicnic.com/web-atelier/?p=62

    I am using IE7. I can open it in my standby browser Firefox. I remember I could open the same site earlier, but just can't since a month or so. Now that I reformatted and thought it may work, but no way. Simply get the message cannot open the site.

    Any idea why? I am not using the HOSTS file..

    Thanks - Rista

    Doesn't seem IE7 compatible. Ask the site owner.

    The link works for me on IE 7 with XP Pro SP2 :)

    Rista - have you tried recently?- the site may have been down.

    Sorry, that I missed your posts yesterday.

    Arie, I did open that site several times sometime ago without any problems whatsoever. As you see, Pete confirms it too.

    I tried it again, but it still says it cannot open the page. I am sure there is some setting somewhere (or is it an add-on). I even dropped it in my safesites zone to no avail. It's jinxed..

    I can live without it, and open it also with ff which I don't like so much, but it's just one of those things that you feel like you must to get to the bottom of it. Some fine day we'll say, Eureka!

    I get a blank page in IE7 on Windows Vista, and an "IE can't Open the Web page" on IE7/ XP SP2. All default settings on the XP SP2.

    I wouldn't try to track it down, it's something on their end.
