    Cannot open certain websites

    Just purchased new computer w/ Vista. Running well but cannot open certain
    websites such as, usairways.com and alaskaairlines.com.

    Any suggestions on internet setting which may help with this problem?

    "Cannot open" is a bit vague. Errors? Symptoms? How far does it get?
    etc

    Thanks for the response. With Alaska airlines it says connecting on the tap
    while the circle goes around and the progress bar goes to 1/3 full. Nothing
    ever appears on screen and it would stay like this forever!

    With the US Airways website, I can get to the front page and input flight
    request info., but when I hit search the circle on the tap goes around and
    there is no progress on the progress bar. It would stay like this forever.

    Thanks for your help!

    I have had problems with certain sites also and despite whatever I tried
    always the same result. I did come up with a totally unofficial fix...I use
    Firefox for those sites and IE for everything else.
