:sad: This one has got me !
It's tax time here in Canada. and all my PCs at home timeout when I try to access any Government of Canada website. I have tested many.

www.cra-arc.gc.ca/
www.canada.gc.ca
www.forces.gc.ca

BUT if I type just the IP address of the site I get there !

198.103.238.30

Seems any website that ends in gc.ca my browsers say "Page cannot be displayed" Happens with EI7 and Firefox2

Seaching the web I see that other people are having the same problem.
My Spybot is up to date but still no access.

Any ideas ?

Hi there.

Indeed they are, way too many topics to read through. :rolleyes:

I can access the sites via the links posted, have you checked to make sure your firewall and/or browser isn't blocking?

Cheers.

Have tried with Firewall on & off - makes no difference, I've scrolled thru the restricted sites list (too bad I can't search it) can see any reason my browser(s) would reject
Thx
