What should I do to watch in IE7?

I am unable to watch any sites using IE7(yes,thats right those disgusting sites) has any one of you managed to do that, if you have please let me know. Thanks in advance.

 

uhm, what?

 

You already started a threat about problems with IE8:

http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=374788

If you have problems with IE7, your system is screwed up.

 

Why don't you post some helpful information: your operating system, your anti-virus software, your anti-spyware software, your system tweaks, etc. If you can surf with FF (per your other thread), then you either configured IE incorrectly or you have some security/antivirus software setting that is preventing you from surfing pron with IE.

 

Am I mistaken, or is this not the Microsoft IE7 help/support room?

 

We'll need links for testing purposes.

Just kidding. I assume that you're talking about "tube" sites? Is your Flash version up to date? Can you watch regular YouTube videos? If you can watch YouTube but not You**** or ****Tube or any of those, then I dunno. Seems to me to be the same sort of delivery mechanism (or so I've heard). Maybe your mom has netnanny installed.

Kudos to you for asking for help in a public forum on how to access Pron. Most dudes wouldn't have the stuff to do that.

 

I would like to point out humbly that I wasn't demanding anything and I am well aware of this useful forum's objectives because I have benefited being a member.
Have you read my OP and understood the question?

 

Thanks for trying to help me Fountainhead, I am not sure whether I can give the site address here for you to check, in any case it's www.x**x.com.
Nothing illegal or I have never picked up any viruses from this site.
I am able to visit this site with Opera and FF without any difficulty but I was curious to find out if any other members here had any problems using IE7 or IE8. I tried custom settings in security and still it wouldn't budge but I'm not bitter.

 

Seriously, we have to wander through 8 posts to find out what the problem and symptoms are? And then deal with an attitide from the OP because he doesn't like us asking questions?

This is why I eventually get burned out on helping people on computer forums.

Like many others, over the years, I have accumulated a lot of knowledge from others on the Internet and, again like others, I like to give back by passing it along and helping other people.

But it gets very frustrating when people asking for help act like this and it just sours the whole process.


Complete sentences describting the problem in detail are necessary. Where does the problem occur? On one machine or entire network? Can the problem be duplicated? If problem exists in one program, does it exist in alternative programs of the same type? Error messages, if any are very helpful. Pictures are even better. Posting one thread is preferred so we don't waste time doing the same thing over and over. If the first thread dies from lack of answers or all the answers do not work, at least link to it for us so we don't waste time covering old ground.

A little freaking gratitude isn't required, but it is ultimately appreciated.

Make it easy for people to help you because we're all donating our time and our time is valuable.

Frankly, I still haven't gotten a clear idea what is going on because of the way you have gone about this whole process.

Ellelan, no one cares if you are a fiend or just some curious kid looking to score a looksee at some boobies. No one cares if you're embarrassed about it. The only thing anyone cares about is that you post as much information as possible and that when people ask for more information that you are forthcoming.

kegobeer, great video in your signature.

 

If only people would watch that before posting.

 

Read the language of yours that's quoted in the post of mine to which you responded, and then come back and explain yourself.

 

Funny how that post disappeared after I responded to it.

 

Oh! Could you explain how that offended you?

 

Thanks jerryf19, I have tried your method but still no luck with IE7 & IE8.

 

But it works using Firefox or Opera?

I was already to say that parental controls were turned on for the router, but that would block the Firefox, too.

Weird.

This is not just an add on issue....can you ping those websites

Get a command prompt up and type
ping www.whateversite.com

does it respond back?

 

I asked earlier for you to post some information about your computer. Please do so. Also post if you use OpenDNS, and if you have these problems if you connect to a different ISP.

 

btw---whateversite means a site that does not work.....

 

To OP: Stop trying to bypass the filter your parents enabled on your computer, it's there for a reason.

I do apologise for the inappropriate language earlier. Thanks guys for all your help.

 

What software do you have installed? Do you have antivirus? Do you have anityspyware? Do you have a security suite installed?

 

I have Avira AntiVirus installed.

 

control panel > programs and features > click on TURN WINDOWS FEATURES ON OR OFF on the left

Scroll down and find TELNET CLIENT, check it and click OK

Wait a while as the client installs...it takes a couple minutes sometimes

When the installing box disappears

Press START ORB,type
CMD
in the search box at the bottom

Wait a second until CMD shows on the top of the search list, right click it, choose RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR

A command line shell opens

type

telnet www.(sitename you are having problems with).com 80
<enter >

Wait about a minute, then press the ESC key

you should see some html code that looks like:

<!doctype html><html><head>< http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"><title>Google</title>>window.google=......

Don't worry, telnet does not understand html

IF you don't see some of this code, what do you see?

 

When I hit the Esc key, I can see only a blank space with blinking dash.

 

try typing EXIT and enter -- the cursor will move, but you will not see text.

What then?

 

I get this (attachment)

 

Doesn't look like you are beign blocked at the router. Gotto be an add-in into IE.

Without sitting at your PC, it's impossible to say what is going on.

 

Thanks gerryf19. I'll keep on looking for the solution from IE forum or some other place. Thanks again for your time and effort.

 

Can I just ask a silly question - how old are you?

 

No problem,I am 48 yrs young.

 

Ok; not, mind you, that I have any way of making sure you're not just blowing smoke up my tutu!

However, I thought it worth a try, just in case this was a case of an under-18 trying to hack around the net-nanny his parents put on the family computer. If you're really 48, you'll understand the paranoia!
