Browser Errors when Connecting to Spaceflightnow

dlwmacgregor · 10 Jun 2018

Hello.
I have been having a problem for about a week now trying to connect with Spaceflight Now The leading source for online space news .

I am using my primary Windows 7 PC.

I get errors in all 3 of my browsers (Firefox, IE, & Chrome - all up-to-date).
The errors are all different (see attachments) but related I think.

When I boot this PC into Windows 10 (dual boot) there is no problem and my Windows 7 laptop also has no problems.

I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

Hi,

Hmm.. I got in to your link with my 60.0.2 FF and IE11

All the warnings that you posted have to do with security and all the major browsers have been scrambling with updates. I'd suggest check your security settings.

In FF go to tools, options, privacy and security, scroll down a bit to security at the bottom and leave the Block dangerous and deceptive content blank.

In IE go to tools, internet options, and security tab I have the internet set to medium with protection mode checked.

Thanks Anak.
I will check those settings in my FF 60.2 and IE 11.
Nothing has changed here as far as my browsers go.
I was wondering if maybe is was my Anti Virus (Bitdefender Anti-virus Plus 2018).
I'll leave that aside for now.
I'll update you with my results.

Neither of those suggestions worked.
My laptop, which as I mentioned works on that site, blocks dangerous and deceptive content (enabled).
I have IE 11 set as you do on both my PC and laptop. Laptop works on that site using IE11.

Now, I ran an SFC /scannow yesterday and came up with 32 errors which I have not yet been able to clear.
I am suspicious that maybe that is the problem and if someone has an idea how to clear them I'd be all ears.
I have tried SFCFix.exe but that did not do it.
I can post my CBS.log file and sfcdetails.txt file if necessary.

Forget about scanfix for now. Did you run 3 consecutive sfc scans with reboots in between each one?
Read the blue note box in option two, it has steps to take. Not sayin' it'll help in your case but running the SURT helped me once.

In the meantime, can you go into BDAV+2018 and whitelist the spaceflight now site/link, and test? If the whitelist doesn't work, post the logs.

Thank you Anak.
I will do that tomorrow and update my status.
I had already added the website to the BDAV +2018 Whitelist with no effect.

I will run it in Safe Mode because I run many utilities in the background and it takes forever to startup.

I am attaching the sfcdetails.txt file. It looks like I have many damaged Manifest files.
