For some odd reason my computer will not connect to a certain website. The website is walmartbenefits.com. My wife works at a walmart and she uses this site to get in and check on stocks, change insurance around etc. I can connect to any site i try except that particular site. I have had freinds go to the site on their computer and it works great. I tried a trace route and it fails immediately almost like my browser has the site blocked. But it isn't. Any ideas what might be causing this? Any help is greatly appreciated..... Thanks

If i try to go to it and let it sit there forever, it will take me to google and have Invalid Link Removed in the google address bar and have the top listings on the google page like i had already done a search on it...... weird isn't it. You reckon my google toolbar is messing up with this one website for some reason?

You are being redirected to a secure site, you just need to enable the correct settings.

With Explorer open, go to tools, select Internet Options, select the Advanced tab, Scroll down and make sure these settings are enabled

Use SSL 2.0
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0

Hit Apply then OK, close out explorer then reopen and go to the site.

OK, I'm thinking there are one or two courses (maybe three) of action here:

1) Do you have a pop-up blocker enabled? If so, turn it off. Some Web sites have nearly invisible momentary pop-ups that appear and disappear very quickly while you're logging in.

2) Go to Internet Options > Sercurity and set it to "Low." If this works, then you just need to figure which setting is screwing you up.

3) If you have a virus/firewall program running, disable it (especially if it's Norton). This is necessary for my wife to log into her work's benefits Web site.

Try it and see if it helps.

Could it be the DNS enabled for wins resolution not being turned on? Don't know what it means? Here is some stuff i copied below.
