IE Restricted Zones via Control Panel> Internet Options> Security
Tab> and clicking on the "Restricted sites" to highlight them and then edit it
using the SITES button.


Try disabling the XP SP2 firewall and see if that helps.

If you have Zone Alarm Pro, go to the "Privacy Tab", Main, Options and open
the Site List. You will find a number of sites that have various "cookie
controls" blocked. Unblock those on the sites you are getting the red X's.
However, this will allow 3rd party cookies and some other things you may not want, but, it should eliminate the problem. SpyBot will block cookies for things such as avenue A, etc.


Hope this helps :-)

I'm running XP home SP2 with an ADSL internet connection. Like many posts in
this section, I cannot access some web sites with Internet Explorer 6.0 ,they
seem to only be https sites, but I am not totally sure. e.g. I cannot access
Ebay.com or Microsoft.com. I have followed all of the solutions suggested in
this discussion group, i.e have reset the security settings to default,
checked the SSL 2.0 & 3.00 settings, deleted cookies and history etc. etc.
etc.but cannot resolve this problem.


If I connect through AOL I can access these web sites with no problem, also
no problem with IE using my laptop with a wireless connection to the ADSL
modem/router.


It looks like my only option is to uninstall IE and re-install. Does anyone
have any advice on the best way to do this?
