Can't get to TechNet Plus Subscriber Online Services

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

On the Technet home page, when I click on the link, "Already a subscriber?"
on the right to sign in it takes me to the following web page:
https://members.microsoft.com/technet/common/
where I get "The page cannot be displayed" error.
I get this on more than one PC running Windows XP sp2 at my my work, and I
am able to logon to other https sites with XPsp2. But I just can't get into
my technet site.

However, when I use a PC with Windows XP sp1 I have not problems at my work.

Thank you for the tip on where to post, but I am having trouble getting to
your link.

in SharpReader I tried:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.technet
but it didn't work

In IE I also tried:
https://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.technet
http://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.technet
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.technet
but it didn't work

I am not familiar with "news://"
Please explain...

Thx

You will eXPerience a far better, and quicker, newsgroup posting
by using the Outlook Express newsreader rather than relying on the
web-based newsgroup web site:
