My friend cannot access sites that use PHP. Is there anything he can do to fix that? He has tried IE7, Firefox, and Opera, but still nothing. Thanks for any help.

We tried everything in the link and still nothing. He can access the site using a proxy site, but not one that uses PHP.

What sites are not working?
A PHP site is a site that uses server-side technology to make web page. There is nothing to install on a client's end as the page is made by the server on the fly.
It's possible to filter access to a website through PHP technology if said user has been banned from that site.

The specific site is www.freeforums.org

Try the following as well:
Check the file integrity of the IE and Outlook:

Start | Run, type scf /scannow (It might ask for the Windows CD to upload the corrupted files)

Re-registering the softpub.dll (dynamic link library) :

Start | Run, type regsvr32 softpub.dll andd wait for the OK message; then try again.

was there a resolution to this problem? i have the same difficulty.. it started when i installed firefox ... i have uninstalled firefox but still cannot access .php websites without using a proxy server... this is hugely frustrating as i could only a matter of days ago.........

I'm also having problems with .php sites. www.we.ridebik.es is the site in question. It is the only site that I cannot access.

I use IE7 but have tried firefox with no luck. I have also checked the firewall settings.

I am using Windows Live One Care and I am wondering weather the site above may have been blocked by accident (so many alerts pop up with Live One Care).... I have no clue here but I am hoping someone can help.
