I get this message when trying to view the site on my PC,
Worked fine a few days ago, no updates have been applied.
Seems to have something to do with the new flash player ads.
Running windows vista, what else I don't know but haven't changed it or updated, and automatic updates is turned off.
Anyone know what the problem could be?

Whats more weird is on this computer, up on the tab for this window it says internet explorer cannot open the internet site, yet it obviously does.

I just tried it on IE and it works fine for me. Try to clear your cache ( delete browsing history) and type in address on address bar. If that doesn't fix it , then God probably hates you.

I access this site with IE on a daily basis. It loads a little slow sometimes (as compared to other sites), but it works. IE 8, Windows XP.

Does this happen to be IE 7?

I just did this here. http://www.precisesecurity.com/tools-resources/troubleshooting/solving-internet-explorer-cannot-open-the-internet-site-error/
I can access the site but cannot use the "insert link" above. Or bold, underline, etc. Theres no ad on the top or bottom of the screen anymore.

I'm having this same problem at the moment. I have the windows explorer that came with windows XP. Mine worked fine a couple of days ago, now it's coming up with error message. I tried deleting my history and restarting my computer, but still no luck. Will try typing the address in rather then selecting from the favorites section

It's my understanding there's a bug in IE 7 that can result in this issue. I understand it may not have been an issue before, and perhaps there was a change that triggered it. However, I would suggest updating IE7 with the all updates to make sure the bug is patched.

I'm on my wife's Mac because the same thing is happening to me on both my home and office PC's. It seemed to work on my office PC when I wasn't logged in, but as soon as my username and password were entered, I had the problem. I guess I'll have to check for updates.
Update: I downloaded the current XP updates and it solved the problem.
