Please help! IE8 problems!

[linzi]

Hi...I'm usually ok at sorting out my own PC problems but have been trying to fix this issue for about 18 hrs now and have admit defeat!

 

I reinstalled Windows 7 yesterday and tried to access a website I need to log into for work through Internet Explorer 8, however I receive the following HTTP 500 error:

 

The website cannot display the page

Most likely causes:

The website is under maintenence

The website has a programming error

 

I know it isn't the website as I can access it through IE8 on another computer and even through firefox on the laptop receiving the error.

It's driving me insane as I like IE and don't particularly want to switch to another browser!

I have tried everything I can think of and have been googling all day! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Does the website you access through work require a security certificate?

or is it secure as in https:// rather than http://

 

I would only say that it could be the security settings if its one particular page, can you still access other pages with IE8 ?

It's an https:/ website....it's the only website I have had a problem with (so far). What the hell can I do to fix it!

I've just had a quick read what Microsoft has to say about this problem. The link might help...

 

You cannot log in to or connect to secured Web sites in Internet Explorer
