Yes, but why would I be able to view it on another computer also on XP and IE8?
Also, I’m the only one having this problem with the URL.
Why are you restricting all those site? Have you cleaned out your cookies and temp files?
Yes, I’ve run ccCleaner, Temp file remover, Super Anti Spyware and one or two other programs but I can’t remove this IP’addresses from the list. I’m not even sure how they got there but they won’t delete.
Its actually best not to use Internet Explorer. But Internet Explorer does have a reset option. Have you tried that?
Just reset all zones back to default level and applied it. Restarted IE browser but IP addresses are still there and still unable to remove.
I wonder if these IP addresses are held in the registry and apply to all browsers?
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CUrrentVersion/Internet Settings/ZoneMap/Domains
The IE Restricted Sites by default should be empty. Maybe in the past you’ve used any software which must have added this list for immunize affect against malwares. I too have many domains inside Restrict Zone. This happened after I scan my PC with Advanced System Care 6.
The weird thing is, I can delete these entries directly for IE, without any problem. While for you, as you mentioned, it’s impossible! :o
This could be the problem eltonzoto. I’d wanted to post an image showing the domain name listed in that directory but as I only have 4 images per post the forum won’t let me.
So how do I remove it? I’m very wary of doing anything in the reg and am not even sure how to back it up - do I export as there is no ‘save’ option.
I deleted my entries without problem from Regedit. But before doing this, first make a backup (export) only to directory-key Zonemap. Or you can use Eusing Free Registry Cleaner 3.2: http://www.eusing.com/downloadfree/EFRCSetup.exe
There you can find an option at File/Backup Full Registry.
I’ve deleted the entry but it has made no difference. The IP addresses with wildcard ** at the end are still there and still cannot be removed.
Hmmm! 
Take a look on this site: http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/restricted.htm and try DelDomains.inf. I tested on my laptop, worked fine. In your case, maybe is better to do that job in Safe Mode.
The good news is that it has deleted the list of domains. The bad news is that the specific URL will still not load.
Situation is becoming interesting. 
Have you tried with different browser e.g Chrome or Opera? Just to test it. If you choose an Chrome based browser, I suggest Comodo Dragon. Has better install/uninstall features than Google Chrome.
I have 4 browsers installed and they report as follows -
IE8 - Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Firefox 22.0 - The connection has timed out
Google Chrome - This webpage is not available
Torch - This webpage is not available
The mystery continues…
Have you checked your HOSTS file?
Just read through this and having a problem w/ Avast refusing to allow a certain site at my local County, only if I use my non-secured (I’m in Noman’s land) wireless modem. Have asked for opinions on another thread. Hardwired other provider allows me to go to this page fine with this laptop. I have Chrome and Windows 7 Professional, and Avast free.
This morning called the County - their IT fellow had no issues. I also tried using IE on my computer (which I almost never use anymore since it has issues) and could not get to the site.
Tried my old internet provider that doesn’t use wireless, and no problem. As soon as I go back to using my wireless modem, voila, Avast’s pop-up about securing my home network pops up, and I can’t get to that County site. Blank page consistently.
Just added this in as perhaps the OP and I may be having some similar problem? Avast 800 tech said simply uninstall and reinstall. Why would that change anything?
You would be best starting your own new topic as one of the problems here is that the OP can’t give us the URL so no one can investigate it.
So if you are able to give a URL that would be best for you as it is something that can be tested. You should also give some information about your network settings, which are typically Home, Work, Public. I have my network connection set to Public which is the strongest setting on my windows network settings. I also have WPA2 as the Wi-Fi Protected Access and I have never had avast give this kind of un/non-secured notice.
Its just to post an update to the situation. I kept fiddling about with different settings, etc and eventually decided to do a repair on the Windows installation. It got most of the way through to the point where it said ‘Plase wait while setup initializes your Windows installation’ saving configuration … and then froze on me.
Unfortunately, when I restarted the system it had lost the configuration and the Windows files. I tried again but the same problem occured. I tried to force it to start at the last setting Windows had run on but this failed as did starting it in Safe Mode - come on M’Soft; get your act together as this should not happen!!
Anyway, I’m now at the point where I’m probably going to have to format and reinstall; unless anyone has any ideas?
A big thanks to all for your help, we nearly got there!
Sorry it wasn’t more productive.
