plz help https problem

[JeremyAlexander]

For some reason https: sites from microsoft won't finish loading they just stay with the green circle forever. Also I am having seperate issues with javascript0)void error on other sites I don't know if the problems are related. Trying to log into Microsoft Connect from home and I don't know if I am only supposed to be able to do this from work. Could someone please tell me if that is possible. Thank you.

Thank You I followed those directions exactly. Thought it would work and the step I had been leaving out was physically restarting instead of logging out, but I still get the javascript:void(0). I think it's something in my visual studio stuff that I need to uninstall but I can't break my nachos or I will be doing a system image restore. I have too much stuff that is microsoft or visual studio to begin to sort through and uninstall one by one. I need to know if there are any other things that don't start with Java(tm) that need unistalled, or is this something else like a security setting.

Ahh .. you didn't mention that you were using a 'virtual' machine and having problems with it.

the problem is my actual desktop, but I was able to get it to work from within a virtual machine so just not worried about it. Would like it fixed, but just a minor thing now.
