problem to go to web page that need password?

Question

I have problem to go to almost all web page that need password. I can't check yahoo email, not hotmail, not gmail, not my ebay, not paypal. All public web sites that need user name and password, the screen simply shown "Page not found" after I typed the web address on the top http:\\....... part. I got no problem to go other web searching web site, I can do search in yahoo. I got no problem to go back to the school web site and login. I think I have problem if I go to those big public high security web site. I checked my internet option, I tried Medium, Medium low, Low. Nothing workable. Any one can help?

Answer 1

It sounds like you are having problems with websites starting in https:// . They use a different "port" to come into your computer. If you have a Cable or DSL Modem, sometimes a restart of the modem will take care of it. Also, try some Windows Updates, sometimes your computer is too out of date for newer websites.

Answer 2

Is it possible that you or someone has installed a program that stores all of your passwords in one place and is asking for the master password? You might check within your Add/Remove Programs within your Control Panel, assuming a Windows XP machine. If you're on a Mac, this most certainly could be the case as it's built right into the operating system as a featured utility.

Answer 3

Some routers block access to encrypted data, specifically some schools. You should verify that that is not your case. HTTPS runs on port 443, while normal HTTP uses port 80. Check you setting on the router, firewall, and desktop firewall to make sure the port is open.
