To all,

Please help. I am using a 10 month old desktop that was bought brand new with windows 8. I rarely use this computer. I am connecting to the internet through my wireless router. My signal is fine and all other devices in my house are working just fine. Some pages allow me to open them but the vast majority come up with the following message:

[B]The proxy server isn’t responding

•Check your proxy settings 127.0.0.1:3128.
Go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections. If you are on a LAN, click “LAN settings”.
•Make sure your firewall settings aren’t blocking your web access.
•Ask your system administrator for help.

Fix connection problems

I have run the windows defender and that didn't work. I have tried to search for and download Spybot but all my attempts reveal the above message.

Thank you all for your help and ideas on resolving my issue.

Brad

Hello mrbradginn, :welcome:

Is your operating system 8.0 or 8.1.

Which browser are you using when you receive the error?


I have run the windows defender and that didn't work.


It didn't work in what way?

Best regards.
