Cannot Open Website Question?

[Guest ColTom2]

Hi:

 

This website http://www.graingerhonda.com/ou/savannah-honda// I cannot

open with IE on a Sony Desktop with IE 7 installed. I can open this site

with Opera 9.22 with same computer. The site is a redirected site.

 

Also I can open this website with IE 7 on my Toshiba laptop with no

problems.

 

I checked the Security Settings on both computers with IE 7 and they

appear to be the same. I have not been able to determine why one computer

will open this site and the other will not with IE7.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

possibly as it may need an installed flash program running?

Hi:

 

I just found the solution myself. It all had to do with Adobe Flash

Player. Apparently it was corrupted and I ran their uninstall tool and

reinstalled in accordance with the following:

Try this first: Instructions for uninstalling and reinstalling the Flash

Player:

 

1. First download the uninstaller to your desktop from here

http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157

2. Before running this uninstaller be sure to read the instruction and close

all running programs.

3. Open the following folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash

4. Run the uninstaller

5. What files are left in this folder? C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash

6. If there are files left, delete the Flash folder.

7. Install the Flash Player from here:

http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer

8. Test the Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/

 

If the Flash Player did not install properly, there may be a permissions

issue within your Windows Registry. Please login as the Administrator (NOT a

User with Admin privileges) and follow these instructions to open the

registry.

 

Warning: The following solution involves the Windows System Registry.

Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can result in serious

system damage which may require re-installation of the operating system. If

you are not comfortable editing the registry, then take your system to a

professional. If you choose to proceed, then it is essential that you create

a complete system backup and a Windows System Restore Point before

proceeding. Adobe Systems cannot be held responsible for damage resulting

from this information.

 

1. Select Start > Run

2. Type in "regedit"

3. Right click on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

4. Select Permissions

5. Select Advanced

 

For Vista

 

Compare your permissions with the ones in this screenshot. Reply with any

differences that you see.

For Window XP PRO

 

Compare your permissions with the ones in this document (scroll down to the

bottom of page). Reply with any differences that you see.
