embedded links weird problem

Hi all.
I have a recurring problem with IE7 that went away on re-install, then came
back. I'm running Win XP Home SP2 and IE7 (version 7.0.5730.13) and my
problem is this:
Pop-up blocker on OR off, when I click on an embedded link that redirects,
the window opens, appears to be loading and then finishes either blank or
with an error message ".... can't be found ..yada yada yada" (ok, so
no "yada yada yada"). this is particularly annoying when trying to log
into a bank or other financial site, but the problem is not limited to
"secure" (https) sites.

As I said, I had it once before, removed and re-installed IE7 and it went
away for a while, but now .... it's baaaack!
I searched around before posting here, but no fixes found.
Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance and as always, best regards,
morey G

Re: embedded links weird problem

We can't explain an error message when all you can say about it is "yada
yada yada".

Here's my guess as to what it really says:

"Error message in Internet Explorer 7: Internet Explorer cannot display
the webpage"

Re: embedded links weird problem

Leonard
I guess my attempt at humour means I should keep my day job.

perhaps I should have been more specific in the first post - the problem is
not one of network connectivity. if you read my post is has to do with
EMBEDDED LINKS and REDIRECTS, not initial connections. if it was a network
issue i don't think i would have connected intitally?

And you may be right as to the exact error message, I didn't have the
patience to read through it and clicked the window shut.

and being something of an "oldie" as opposed to a "newbie", i cleared the
cache, deleted temp|history, the whole deal. i even went through all the
"3rd party add-ons" stuff last time it happened. I searched the kb for the
problem initially, tried the fixes suggested,and NONE of them worked.
That's why I went the "uninstall/re-install" route. I was hoping that
perhaps someone had encountered a similar problem here....

thanks for the network issues link though, if i have any problems I'll be
sure to use that page
Regards
Morey

Install Fiddler2 and get a better symptom description
by analysing its trace.

Re: embedded links weird problem

You've been about this newsgroup for 15 years and you describe error
messages as "yada yada yada"?

Re: embedded links weird problem

Robert,
Thanks for the program lead. I installed it and am in the process of
figuring out how to decipher the results and how to use the tool.
Once I get a handle on it, I'll post back.
thank you again!

Regards
Morey
