    Its sounding like a connection problem.

    Could you confirm who your ISP is and how you connect? also do you have a 3rd party firewall installed?

    Sorry, i just noticed you say your running Windows XP with IE8.

    There has been problems reported with this combination, as IE8 was made for Vista, then 'whittled' to work on XP.

    I suggest you uninstall IE8 which will revert back to IE7, see if this solves your problem.

    If not, you can easily reinstall IE8.

    I tried to install IE7, but still same:
    Either get message: link broken, or
    Cannot display the webpage.
