Solve : Connection Refused On some sites? |
|
Answer» Here is the message I RECEIVE "the connection was refused when trying to contact so and so address" Can you not access any website at all, but you do have an internet connection? I can access most sites. Mainly the ones that require a log in I cannot access. Such as hotmail, ebay, hushmail, etc. How do I configure the DNS server. Not sure what the TCP/IP settings are. thanksIf you are accessing the net your DNS and TCP/IP are OK. What these sites seem to have in common is secure log in. If you have a firewall and/or router check to see that port 443 is not being blocked. Also check your browser settings under advanced and make sure that it is using SSL.I am having this same problem and have no clue how to check if port 443 is being blocked. Can you tell me how to check that. I have done all of the others things suggested in this thread and I still cannot access any sites with secured logins. This is a huge problem for me since I cannot access the site the I use for work everyday and I have to work on Tuesday!! HELP PLEASE. Another problem Im having is that my computer was running fine until Friday night. I ran my spybot and cleaned up my computer. I also deleted some unused programs and installed a new internet security provided free by my ISP. In addition to not being able to access sites with secured logins which happened before I downloaded the new internet security software, I cant run the new antivirus software supplied with it. My subscription for Norton expired and I didnt renew since my ISP provided a free antivirus program. But in order to run it I must first uninstall Norton. When I ATTEMPT to do this from the control panel Add/Remove program option it keeps telling me that I must be LOGGED in as an Administrator to uninstall it. I AM the only user on this computer and do have Administrator privileges. It tells me to login to Norton as an administrator and uninstall. However, when I open Norton it wont let me login because its expired. How the heck do I uninstall it now? Nortons website is no help. Also, please dont suggest that I download Mozilla and forget about IE because I tried that already and everything I tried in Mozilla told me that it couldnt connect to the internet and I have cable internet access. Thanks in advance for any and all help. TammyThe SSL under advance are both checked. the 2.0 and 3.0. How do I go about checkin the firewall/router for port 443I just removed norton symantec internet security. So far I can log into everything now. What should I replace this with. Thanks for everyones helpZone Alarm or Sygate personal firewall. The Norton firewall had the port blocked.I have seen that before. In one case, Symantec Internet security would cause Internet Explorer to completely stop showing web pages. Try using a more reliable firewall such as ZoneAlarm Free -- Free firewall - more user friendly Sygate Personal -- Free firewall - more configuration optionsHi, Im still having the same problem. I dont know how to check if port 443 is blocked, I cannot uninstall Norton, it wont let me, and my system restore has only one date that I can use for restoration prior to the problem and it wont restore for some reason. The sites that I use for my job (I work at home on the computer) I cant access. I really need this problem fixed so I can work and support my 4 kids! Please help!!! Tammy Quote I cannot uninstall Norton, it wont let me Uninstall it in a logical order or uninstall it from Safe mode.I just ran the AVG Anti-virus free edition and it showed I had a virus. It says its Trojan Horse Small.P How do I go about gettin rid of the virus. Under the healable tab it says it is not healable. |
