Hi all,

This post is about an IE error. An error message continues to appear when IE is used for browsing websites.

‘ERROR MESSAGE’
Windows Internet Explorer
Internet Explorer cannot download pfx ssl from www.startssl.com
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. 
 
Please try again later.

 

 
 
I think it refers to connection to the website, however internet connection is working fine.  I am wondering why this error message continues to display.
 
Please help.
 
Thanks a lot.

Hello,

The error occurs when the Internet Explorer is unable to save the file in the local cache directory and the associate program is unable to open it. This happens mostly in case of secure Web sites when Internet Explorer enforces any no-cache request. The issue is present by design and can be resolved by the website developer. To resolve the issue, the developers of websites having downloadable content must note to remove the no-cache header from the website.

For more information, please visit the following web link :

You can also try installing the following hotfix to resolve the issue:

I think this is informative and help you in resolving the issue. 

All the  best.

Gloria

What 's up Jovyhasle's,

Internet explorer is actually a problem finder for me, that s why I don't used this browser anymore. I prefer Chrome and Firefox.

But don't worry there is still a solution to this issue . Primary reason script of Web site. Scripting languages such us JavaScript and also Google API script  can affect  the browser's performance.  Simple configuration of Internet Explorer will fix this error. 

Open Internet explorer>Tools>Internet Option (Select Security tab)>Select web content Internet>Click Custom Level>Disable active scripting and scripting of java applets. Then restart your browser. 

Or it could be a third party add-on like Skype .

To resolve this : Go to Tools> Internet Options >Advanced Tab  find this word "Enable third-party browser extensions" then uncheck this . restart your browser. If all is fixed?? Then it is definitely the add on that causes this error.

Thank you

The problem might be the LAN connection, the computer or the browser. Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. Anyway, I have found another Techyv post which is described well about this problem too. Visit this Techyv link and get more idea.
