Since I got automatically upgraded from 1.5.2 to 1.6 (and this is the only system change I've made recently) I get the following browser error messages often (whereas I never got it under 1.5) when trying to go to websites:
BEGIN COPY AND PASTE--------------------------
Address Not Found
webmail.earthlink.net could not be found. Please check the name and try again.
The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.
* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. ww.mozilla.org instead of www.mozilla.org)
* Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.
* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.
* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.
END OF COPY AND PASTE-----------------------------
These are webites I go to all the time, like my mail server. There's a "try again" button which sometimes gets me to the websites after multiple tries. I have not noticed any pattern as to which websites get blocked. I can eventually get to the desired website, but this is a real pain.
I'm planning on going back to 1.5 because of the slowness issue, but I have not had time yet....
Has anyone else experienced this with 1.6?
Any ideas or fixes on this?
Thanks in advance
