| 759062 | 2009-03-24 10:39:00 | Hiya I have a new laptop, just connected to internet only moments ago. Able to access some websites, however - can't access Trade Me, Bebo, Youtube etc. Comes up with: The address is not valid Most likely causes: There might be a typing error in the address. If you clicked on a link, it may be out of date. What you can try: Retype the address. Go back to the previous page. Guessing there's something in the settings - but not sure what I'm looking for, any help much appreciated :help: :thanks |

| 759067 | 2009-03-24 21:36:00 | Hi all :p Tried turning off the firewall and accessing sites, still didn't work. Using Windows XP, and Internet Explorer. Not sure what DNS settings would be, they were done for me by a work colleague. Cheers p.s. I'm typing the address into the address bar. |
