Hi Sam....give this a try: Fixing “Website Can’t Be Found” and other Site Error Messages More than likely you have trouble with accessing quite a few sites.....particularly getting the message "website can't be found" among a few other error messages. Try the following and it should solve your problem. 1. Go to START. 2. Click on CONTROL PANEL. 3. Click on INTERNET OPTIONS. 4. Change NUMBER OF DAYS TO KEEP IN HISTORY to “0” and click APPLY 5. A box appears with tabs labeled across the top. Click on ADVANCED. 6. Scroll down to the sub-heading SECURITY. 7. Make sure the following has check marks next to it: Use USE SSL 2.0, USE SSL 3.0 and USE TLS 1.0. 8. Also make sure you check off EMPTY TEMPORARY INTERNET FILE WHEN BROWSER IS CLOSED. More than likely USE TLS 1.0 is not checked of and it should be. This will give you the error messages, as well as a few others, that will prevent you from viewing web sites and the error you are getting. Make sure you empty your cookies cache as well as temporary internet files once in a while, too, as this slows down your computer and these folders tend to “remember” the error page and you may still continue to get the error until these are emptied.

I reformatted my PC (done it before, successfully) now I can search on 1837 but when I click on "VIEW" it shows a page saying I've either entered the site the wrong way, and to re-log in, or my cookies are not enabled. I followed what it said to do for the cookies... Tools > Internet options > privacy > moved the bar to accept cookies. But no.... Not even a flippin' cookie to dip in me tea!!! Where am I going wrong please? Sam
