I keep on getting this message when my Internet Explorer is opening:
Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet Site. the connection with the server was reset.
How do I fix this? Do I upgrade Explorer?

There are lots of things which can cause this, depending on which version of windows and IE you are running. As a start, you can delete the following registry key (don't worry, windows will rebuild it the next time you open IE)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\Schannel

If that doesn't solve the problem then reject this answer (which will let me know you've tried) and give some details about your OS, version of IE and an example of a site from which youget the message. Hope it goes OK

IE does not properly handle an HTTP/1.1 302 redirect returned from a proxy server or internet server
A reported fix is available see kb article Q193489 for ref
Then you may want to upgrade IE to 5.01,which the problem was fixed,download from microsoft web site
