Guy, we highly recommend that you visit our Guide for New Members. Solved: What does "HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden Internet Explorer" Mean? Discussion in 'Web & Email' started by referee07, Jul 15, 2004. Thread Status: Not open for further replies. Advertisement referee07 Thread Starter Joined: Sep 11, 2003 Messages: 1,230 Sometimes when I try to go to a website, I get the message: HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden Internet Explorer. What does this mean and can I change settings in IE to get past this error message? Thanks. referee07, Jul 15, 2004 #1 Sponsor RandyG Joined: Jun 26, 2000 Messages: 7,762 It means you have been refused access to that page, and it is a setting that the webmaster defines. nothing you can do can allow you to access it, other than contacting the webmaster in question and asking them to let you have access. there are 61 articles in the MS Knowledgebase regarding this error, and most are caused by the webmaster, but if you are using IE 5, then you should upgarde to the latest service packs, or just upgarde to IE 6. RandyG, Jul 15, 2004 #2 referee07 Thread Starter Joined: Sep 11, 2003 Messages: 1,230 RandyG, thanks for the reply but I get this message whenever I try to go to many sites not just one. Could it be something that has changed in the settings on my computer in IE? This just started a day or two ago. Before that, I had no problem going to websites. Thanks. referee07, Jul 15, 2004 #3 RandyG Joined: Jun 26, 2000 Messages: 7,762 hiya referee, i edited my original post, see if some of those articles help. RandyG, Jul 15, 2004 #4 Sphere11 Joined: Dec 29, 2003 Messages: 247 referee07, I had a very similar problem and this is how i fixed it. Go to start > Run > type in: ipconfig /flushdns If that doesnt help, trying viewing the same pages in different browsers (netscape or opera) and see if there is a difference Sphere11, Jul 15, 2004 #5 referee07 Thread Starter Joined: Sep 11, 2003 Messages: 1,230 Sphere11, I tried running this. The same thing happened when I tried to access websites. Actually, this usually now happens whenever I try to download something. When I ran ipconfig/flushdns, what appeared to be a black box flashed on the screen for a half second and then disappeared. Was this supposed to happen? Thanks. referee07, Jul 15, 2004 #6 Sphere11 Joined: Dec 29, 2003 Messages: 247 Yea that black box is just the command executing itself. But I suppose if your still having the problem, its not what I thought it was.
