Internet Explorer Problem!!

I've recently created a couple of sites with the .org extension. The problem is occassionally when I type my domain in the IE address bar I get the following error message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find www.pinelivingroomfurniture.org.

I imediately got in touch with my hosting company and they said that the problem is my end as everything is ok as far as they were concerned and that I should maybe use mozilla firefox. Obviously this would cause me problems as if somebody clicks on my links and are using IE, then I,ve lost that visitor! Whats confusing me is that I have .coms & .net domains and have never had this problem!

Has anybody had this happen to them or is there a common problem with IE?

    I just tried it in IE and it works ok here.

    In my personal experience, IE is easily broken. Once it's fallen over itself, it is sometimes impossible to make it work properly again.

    I'd suggest three things:
    1) Use Firefox (or Chrome)
    2) Scan your computer for malware using Malwarebytes
    3) Go the Microsoft website and see if you can reinstall IE

    Hope some of that helps

    Did you set up the hostng very recently??
    Chances are good that when you tried, the DNS was not resolving..
    Its working now though...
    Try now, if it doesnt, clear cache and cookies and try againn
