The browser could not find the specific document that you requested on the host computer. To resolve this error, check the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) syntax (some URLs are case sensitive). In addition, the page may have been removed, had its name changed, or have been moved to a new location.
The Web site you requested requires special access permission (for example, a password).
The host computer is too busy. Try viewing the page again after about 30 seconds.
The form or the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) code for an online form has an error.
The results of a form (such as a WebCrawler search) cannot be saved as a bookmark. A bookmark can only be a document or an address.
This is a version of the 403 error. The Web site you requested requires special access permission.
The Web site's URL could not be translated into a valid Internet protocol (IP) address. This error is common on commercial sites because the computers that are responsible for translating the IP addresses are overloaded. Try again later when there may be less Internet traffic. This can also be caused by a URL syntax error (the URL has incorrect format).
This error is common with proxy servers (a server on a local area network that lets you connect to the Internet without using a modem). The proxy is either down, busy, or cannot interpret the command that was sent to it. You may want to wait for 30 seconds or more then try viewing the page again. If the problem persists, contact the network administrator of that proxy. Whatever is shown instead of xxx.com is usually your Internet service provider.
The browser found the site, but nothing in the specific file. Try adding ":80" (without the quotation marks) to the URL just before the first slash, for example: http://www.microsoft.com:80/
You have attempted to download a file that needs a helper program, and your browser cannot find the program. On the browser's Preferences or Options menu, make sure the correct folder and file name are entered for the helper program. If you do not have a helper program, save the file to disk and obtain the helper program.
The browser could not find the Usenet newsgroup that you tried to access. Make sure the news server address is correctly listed in your browser's preferences or options menu and try again.
The link no longer exists.
Too many users are trying to access the site, the site is down for maintenance, there is noise on the line, or the site no longer exists. This can also be caused by a user URL syntax error.
This error is caused by erroneous data on the line between you and the requested site. This may be hardware related. Report the error to your network administrator and try again later.
The site is busy. You may want to try again after about 30 seconds.
The URL did not return anything, the site is unavailable, or the Internet connection was dropped. Check the hardware connections and URL syntax.
This error can occur if you are using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) security (such sites have "https" at the beginning of the URL) when you are connecting to certain Web servers. This behavior may occur on C2 StrongArm servers with Internet Explorer 3.x and 4.0 in Windows 95 and Windows NT.
This is the FTP equivalent of the Web browser's 404 error. The FTP program cannot find the site requested. This can also be caused by a URL syntax error.
NOTE: This is not an error message. If this occurs shortly after you log on, try using a dash (-) as the first character of your password. This turns off the site's informational messages, which may be causing a conflict with the FTP program.
NOTE: This is not an error message. This indicates that line noise has prevented the FTP program from continuing. This could be a hardware problem, the command string sent to your modem may be incorrect, or the modem may not be properly configured.
This is caused by a URL syntax error, or the news server may not carry the newsgroup you are trying to access. See your network administrator for assistance.
This message indicates an outdated message. The message you requested is still in the index, but has been removed from the server.
The news server is busy or is down, or you do not have access to the news server. Another possibility is that your browser or news reader program has been set up incorrectly.
NOTE: This is not an error message. This is caused by a binary (non-text) file, such as a picture, movie, or program, that has been encoded into text characters. Most news readers include automatic decoding of binary files. To decode a file, use a decoding program or purchase a news reader that supports automatic decoding.
This error occurs when a menu lists an item that longer exists. The item may have been moved or renamed. Gopher menus must be updated manually so they sometimes refer to outdated catalogs.
Your search term did not appear in the catalog or menu.
This error occurs when you have tried to access a network or site that has been set up strictly for local use. You cannot access the Gopher site unless you are considered part of that local network.
This may be caused by a URL syntax error. The name was typed incorrectly or the address was typed incorrectly.
NOTE: This is not an error message. This may be caused be a temporary problem at the site or on the Internet. You may have been involuntarily "unsubscribed" by the mail list program at the site. Or, the list may have been discontinued.
This is a warning indicating that the mail message may be delayed. The mailer will continue to send, depending on the configuration of the mailer.
