is anyone else having issues with webshots? its been 4 days i cant get on there, it says page cannot be displayed. i have tried restarting comp and used 4 different web browsers with no luck.

 

I cant access it with no problems at all. What do you have the windows internet security settings set to?

 

its on the defaut medium, nothing has changed

 

How often do you scan your pc for spyware?

 

not very, what are you using?

I use this one for finding and removing spyware.

What version of windows are you using?

 

windows xp and i am doing a scan now with windows defender

 

Make sure the scanner is the most up to date one available. Do you use the windows updater? If nothing comes up using the scanner you may have a bigger problem, like a virus of maleware. In which case you will need an anti virus program to destroy it. Does your pc do anything else out of the ordinary?

 

quick scan is normal, its on a full scan now, this is the only issue i have is with webshots and it just started. it is upto date, i suppose its time to update the norton?

 

Always do the the full scan, you need to look deep.
Are you still having the problems with FTE too? If you have to pay for the norton update there are a few very good free ones. I use avast. You can download it from cnet.com

Only one website not working it strange. Lets look at your hardware. What internet service do you use? Are you connected to a router?

 

Joe I am having the same exact problem with webshots. No matter which network I use (home or work) but it works fine on my desktop at home. Just the laptop won't get er done!

 

i am using internet explorer through verizon high speed dsl, 3mb. i have only the issue with webshots, no speed issues, no other sites, the full scan cam e up with 2 probs, only medium risk, i just deleted them with no change in anything

as for fte, since their server maintance or whatever it was a month ago i have had 0 probs, fast loads, no hicups, no errors. just that annoying advertisement on top of an f-150 that sounds like a diesel blowing black smoke across my screen...lol

 

If using at work computer company may/can enable proxy server which will not enable some web services .. ie, "page cannot be dispayed". Company blocking said sites. If laptops going from work/home then need to disable proxie servers options in setup in your browser.

Joe can you get on yet? I can now. Not sure what changed. I did run the ad ware thing and deleted some junk! Thanks FordForever! Did that yesterday but didn't give it a try until this morning. thats the only thing that changed other than time.

 

yup i just got on, all is good?
