Hmm connection was reset? I was having a similar problem with various sites a while back and it turned out I had I virus...or atleast I think. It cleared itself up after a virus scan that got rid of 90+ infections my PC had.

If not try the basic going to internet options and clearing of the cookies, temp files, ect ect. Check the security settings and the blocked sites...I can't think of much else that would be of help though sorry.

Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons. Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start! Today I learned that you clean up a white hat by spraying some cleaner with bleach on it (rinse before putting it back on your head!)
