I am sorry if this is in the wrong forum and feel free to move it if it is.
Okay, so basically a little over a week ago I started getting error messages that read 'Internet Explorer cannot open the internet site, operation aborted' on Serebii. It was happening quite often, mainly when I tried to go the Black & White page so I assumed there was just an issue with the site. However, since then, I have continued to get the issue on all pages of the site including these forums and I had the error message appear on two other sites as well.
I then assumed that there must be something wrong with my browser and today I updated my IE 7 to IE 8 and according to the official Microsoft website, the problem no longer occurs in this browser. However, I am STILL getting the issue.
Basically what I want to ask is, is anyone else getting this issue recently? It mainly seems to be happening on Serebii, it only appeared once on one of the other sites I go on and I have been on there more than Serebii recently.
Also, is there any way to fix this issue without having to change browsers completely? And (although I kinda doubt it) could this be a virus of some kind?
And if it helps, I have noticed that when I do get the error message now and it goes to the 'webpage cannot be displayed' screen after clicking 'OK', I can actually back up now and go back to the previous page of the site whereas when I was using IE 7, it just wouldn't load.
EDIT: I just got another error message on that site that I said I was going on more often than serebii. The last time I got the error message was on the same day I got the problem with serebii I think. It seems like the more errors I get, the more they seem to appear, but maybe that's just me.
