Re: autopia car care forums...
It works with Vista, I'm using it right now. You need to turn off User Account Control. Click Start--Control Panel--click User Accounts and Family Safety title--click User Accounts title--click Turn User Account Control On or Off. After you turn this off try to launch the command prompt again and run that command. I really hope this works for you after all this!

I thought you already tried other browsers?

In post number 11 I said that I had other browsers. I hadn't tried them until a minute ago. Firefox will open the home page, but not the forum itself. I'll try your other suggestion next.

When you say "the home page," what home page are you referring to?
Autopia Car Care Products - Car Detailing Supplies, Car Wax, Car Polishers, Auto Detailing
or
Autopia Forums - Auto Detailing & Car Discussion Forum

I did this and then tried the prompts given in your post number 14. It said it was succesful, but I still could access the forum.
I had to click on a checked box, as there was no off/on. It just said it was on at the top off the page and I assumed unchecking the box would work. It promted me to restart when I unchecked it.
Won't I need to go back and make sure to check the box again? I assume the box has been checked for who knows how long and that it should be rechecked to go back to previous settings.

Re: autopia car care forums...
It still doesn't make sense that I can open every other forum I get on, except for autopia car care.

It's DSL and I turned the power box off/on and still no dice. I guess it's not meant for me to view that forum.
