Hello, everyone. I've come to this communtity a few times before, and it's usually been helpful, so here I am.

My family owns a Dell Dimension 8400 PC w/ Windows XP. Although my family has had a bad history with virus trouble, the Internet has been working pretty well since we got it. Recently, however, there has been a bit of an issue when it comes to singing up for things via Internet. An example: I try to sign into my email account at Yahoo, and it comes up with a "The page cannot be displayed" screen. My sister tried to download a job application: same screen. My mom tried to order a bunch of stuff from a website: same screen. I tried to register for the ACT: same screen. Anytime anyone tries to register or sign up for something; when you click the actual button, that screen comes up.

This is a huge problem, considering the amount of items my family orders online. Since I'm also going to be applying for colleges soon, I need a reliable Internet that I'm sure will get my information through. It's very nerveracking. I don't know what to do. So if anyone has any idea what this is all about and how to fix it, I would be very thankful.
