This is so weird, i can access every other website i normally go to but for some reason every time i try access anything associated with aol (email, help even aol.com ) or facebook i get the "Ooops google chrome could not find xxx"

this happens on google chrome browser and also on IE

can anyone help ?

i've turned the laptop on and off and the router tried the LAN settings advice from chrome help page all to no avail...it was all working fine then started getting this message at about 630am.

    Can't access AOL? Lucky you.


    Seriously though, where in the country are you? Because it works fine for me here, but on the AOL help site this message is posted:
    Alert: Some users in the Northeast may be experiencing issues connecting using the AOL Desktop software. We apologize. We have our best people working hard to fix it as quickly as possible!
