For some reason, behind a proxy, Firefox is the only browser that will load a website hosted on another network. The problem is that website needs IE to work properly (IE6 to be precise). Under IE I get the message This page can't be displayed Make sure the web address http://thissite is correct. Look for the page with your search engine Refresh the page in a few minutes Fix connection problems With Chrome I get Oops! Goole could not find thissite Did you mean: thissite.com If I connect directly to the router, it works with IE. If access the site from the proxy, it works with IE. If I access the site from the proxy while using the proxy (ie is using the proxy setting in the browser), it works with IE. Once I am on my LAN, only Firefox can access it. All LAN web activity must be via the proxy. What gives?
That's a really odd problem. Maybe try editing the hosts file to see if you can help the browser find the website? Just guessing here really. DAT IE6 pain!
