  I can’t connect to the WordPress login page on my laptop but can on my PC (same problem with Facebook but no other websites I’ve tried) – same wi-fi but different Windows

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m afraid that sounds like some sort of issue with your laptop rather than WordPress.com itself. Do you have any security or other blocking software installed on your laptop? What sort of error screen do you see when you try to go to WordPress.com? Have you tried a different browser to see if that makes a difference?

  Hi – no I haven’t tried another browser – good idea – I just get ‘Internet explorer cannot display this page’ both for WP and FB – but not for anything else. The laptop help advice suggested system restoring which I tried but it didn’t help. I’ll try another browser.
