Thank you for that Judy....must have taken ages! I'm going to try it right now, back in a mo. I still cannot post on Ancestry, but you were right about the unchecked item. I don't have problem with any other site. Thanks again for your help.

Samantha: If you haven't already, try changing the following setting.....even if this doesn't correct your immediate problem, is should still be done as you will benefit from it in the long run. After changing the setting, empty your cookies cache and temporary internet files and try posting again. Judy 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.

I'm logged in but I cannot post messages, new threads or replies. I just keep being take to the "Page not available" Infuriating! Anyone else having problems. I now know to copy my message before trying to post, after I had to retype twice, but still did not manage to post it.
