Guest Michael Walraven Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Rich, No-go for me, still same symptom. I have also been in the netsh command area - resetting everything that has that as a option. As you observed it seems like a 'proxy' is in there somewhere.

Not sure but maybe - if it does than it's a DNS issue and IE is not getting that address - if it does not them something is blocking the reply from their server. Quote
Guest bigdave2k4 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I fixed my problem to access the www.equifax web site by issuing the following command in a command prompt window set to have administrator authority: netsh int tcp set global ecncapability=disabled you can go to this web site to see how to do it. 'SpeedGuide.net :: Windows Vista / 2008 Tweaks' (http://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=2574) ECN is turned off by default in Vista but somehow got turned on. hope it works for you. -- bigdave2k4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bigdave2k4's Profile: http://winvistaclub.com/forum/member.php?userid=419 View this thread: http://winvistaclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17918 Quote
Guest Michael Walraven Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 THANKS That was my problem. I still wonder why the only site I had problem with was the equifax site?
