"http" problem, please help
Recently my internet explorer seems to have messed up. I
used to be able to go to a website by typing in "www...." Now, I got a site not found message, with suggestions for similar sites, which are usually the site I wanted to go to. It seems that the only way I can go to a site is if I type in "http://" followed by the site. I've compared my desktop's internet settings to my laptop's, they're the same. I also tried reloading my OS. Can anyone help? |
