Hi everyone. This is my first ever posting so I hope im doin it right.
I have had my internet connection for a little over two weeks now and seem to have spent 95% of my time online sorting out 'security' stuff. I have a few final things to tweak and would greatly appreciate anyones help with any of them (i have looked through the threads first but couldnt find any solutions to these following probs). PLEASE help.
The various 'security' applications that I am using are Sygate (firewall), F-prot (anti-virus), SpywareBlaster, Spybot S&D, Yahoo and Google popup blockers and Guidescope (proxy server-i think!). As far as protecting my computer is concerned verything seems to be working fine (I get a full stealth rating from the GRC Shields up test and regular scans of my system reveal no viruses or spyware threats etc). I will make a seperate thread for each problem to make it easier for others perhaps experiencing similar problems to find them:

2. 80% of the time that im browsing I get the 'The page cannot be displayed' message. Yet every time I select 'refresh' it displays the page ive linked to fine! What can I change to stop me having to 'refresh' every time?

Hi, Zoiuk,
Try this:
At at site, click on Tools at the top, then click Internet Options.
Click on the Security tab.
Left click on the Internet icon, to hightlight it. Then click on the Custom Level button, bottom right.
Re-set the level to "medium".
Click on Apply and OK.
This might help, but not absolutely sure.
