Hi Sonali,

What error message do you get when visiting these sites? Do you mean that HTTP sites don't work but HTTPS sites do?

Hi Sonali,

What error message do you get when visiting these sites? Do you mean that HTTP sites don't work but HTTPS sites do?

Yes exactly. I cannot access http sites but https sites work. I tried adding those sites in trusted sites but still it does not help. The site asks for login details.

I'm still not sure I understand, when you visit an HTTP site, what happens - I guess you get an error or message of some sort? Any chance you can upload a screenshot of what happens please and I'll take a look.

Does this happen to all HTTP sites? What can you please try taking the screenshot on http://www.example.com

Hello
Here I upload a screen shot. Sometimes there is no error message and the site just does not show up. This applies to all HTTP sites. I have also noted that sometimes the sites show up if I add https://.

Thanks for the screenshot. It looks like HTTP does work, as authentication box will only pop up if a connection is successful. What happens when you visit this exact link?:

http://www.example.com

That's a definite working http site that I can load.

I also can't load the once you posted in the screenshot, so I would say that it is a problem with that website, but you've said it also happens on other websites.
