Hi there,

I have a problem I was hoping someone could help me with.
I have Windows XP SP2 and things used to be fine but now, all of the sudden,
I receive error messages when going to certain websites I used to be able to
go to.

The message I receive is

Network Error (tcp_error)
A communication error occurred.
The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems
preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a
later time.

For assistance, contact your network support team. Reference device SATX-DLA2

I should mention that I can get on these sites from other computers.

Help!

I'd bet you should check the MTU setting.

Or maybe you have Hosts file blocking, or a similar filter.
