I have ben online for a year and have had no problem up until three days ago accessing the log in pages for paypal and my credit card company. Now I cannot access these pages - it comes up with a page unavailable fault. The first night it happened, I had reason to believe that I had a virus and I thought this might be part of the problem. I have since formatted my hard drive as my virus scanner did not pick a mysterious file up as a virus but I was sceptical as i know it was not there two hours beforehand. Having reinstalled my operating system and internet browser software, I am still unable to access these pages - I have tried changing my internet security settings but this seems to have no effect. I can browse through all other pages on the sites - I just can't access the log in page. I have had other people try these sites for me on their computers and they can access them no problem, so i know it is my computer. does anyone have any ideas? lianne UPDATE: It just seems to be these pages - I can access other (secure) pages such as the BT at home log in with no problem.
