I'm getting a error that says it cannot open "http://www..../index.php" with my IE. Operation Aborted.

I've had this problem for a bit on most of the galleries and review sections. I know you've told us how to fix it, but I've been busy and have waited until now to ask.
Viewfinder has never had this problem. I've tried removing all my cookies and reloging in. works for a bit. but comes back.

I also generally start bowsing the site through ViewFinder, if that matters.

Does any of the page load at all? Does it start loading and then stall and give you an error? Does it happen at a specific time of day or any time?

I haven't seen this error so I'm guessing it's something specific to your software and/or machine. That doesn't mean it's not important, though. It may be happening to lots of people. GIve me some more info so I can try to track it down.

Anyone else having similar problems?

then bam, operation aborted. and I get the unable to connect to sever generic error.

It's been happening for me since the format change. mainly I see it on the galeries and review/classified pages.

It doesn't happen all the time and never with Viewfinder. Soory I didn't post about it sooner. I thought I saw a post early on about a fix for this, but I could be way off.

IE 6.0.2800.1106

As soon as the page loads I get the Unable to open error and the page seitched to:

Cannot find server or DNS Error

Just a suggestion Brian. Have you ever used spyware detection software such as Adaware or Spybot? These programs pick up unwanted spyware that could possibly be causing your problem. Of course a virus check would be in order as well.

You could try deleting all cookies, temporary internet files and history files. But I think your problem may go a little deeper.

Have you tried accessing other sites similar to PR?

I had a bout with that a while ago. I thought things had cleared up but maybe somethings still lurks.

The virus check is current and actively running. I'll do some sweeps for spys.

Keep us posted Brian. I'll see if I can find any information for you if all of this doesn't work.

I use both Spybot and Adaware. Spybot seems to pick up things Adaware misses.

Brian-
I am having no problems with the site and am not aware of any server issues. I think you should explore the possibility of a hijack. The symptoms you're describing could be caused by a combination of spyware + anti-virus software. Basically, it would be an attempted hijack/redirect being blocked by your anti-virus software. There is some nasty new spyware out there. My Home machine is jacked right now and I haven't been able to figure it out. I've been digging pretty deep and keep finding more crap on it. I'm running Ad Aware and Hijackthis. I guess I need to add Spybot, too.

Hey PJ, Try TDS, Lara put me onto that and it found several things on my computer I didn't know I had, have tried other things as well, but they seemed to have been missed.
