[QUOTE="R. Johnson, post: 1995306, member: 10606"] I know this ain't a computer forum, but its the only forum I'm a member of so I hope one of y'all can help me out. I recently got to Afghanistan and they've got Internet provided to us for personal use, it's through hughes net. Anyhow, my laptop computer won't let me view most websites on this network. I can look at Facebook, and that's just about it. Skype and Dropbox work just fine though, and I can connect my iPad to the wireless and I've got no problems, everything displays just fine. Anyhow, my pc is running windows 7, and neither IE nor Firefox will do anything more than just Facebook. When I try to look at Fox News, or Drudge, or pretty much anything else it says "The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection. If your computer or blah blah blah blah..." I've tried turning my firewall off to no avail. I'm using Kaspersky antivirus. I don't really no what else to do, I sure hope someone can help me out.
