I just installed Verizon DSL internet. It is working OK, but it seems to be blocking certain sites, most of which are secure sites, like ebay, myspace, Capitalone's credit card site, my webmail from Penn State etc. My old internet is still active, so I hooked that back up, and tried these sites, and they all work fine, so it has to be something with the Verizon service. I called their tech support, and we went tried a bunch of things, with no luck. They're saying it's something wrong with my computer! I doubt that since the sites work with my old service on this same computer! I've seen some other people on google having similar problems, but no solutions. Anyone have any ideas why only certain secure sites seem to be blocked? Some of these are kind of important sites for me!
BTW, it's Windows 98, so there is no firewall, and I don't subscribe to Verizons firewall, or extra security package. Thanx
