Hi On some links my browser will connect. When I click on others, I get an error response. And it can be the same link I clicked on, but from another site and everything's hunky-dory. How do I fix this? I don't have the information for this :( Thanks in advance. Kjtorg

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?

For example, I just tried ordering something from amazon, got to where I pay, clicked on the button. Was then sent to a security page with 3 step security wall, passed everything and when I pressed <Enter> I got a new Banner which stated that it was unable to complete the transfer. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
