Outlook causing 'connection was reset' error message, need my email, help!

I have looked through so many troubleshooting questions that are similar but nothing is helping.
So far;
Turned it off and on again.
Deleted cookies, searched for corrupted files left behind but found nothing.
Cleared the cache.
Checked the anti virus software (bitdefender)
Uninstalled Flash player.
Disabled add ons.
Threatened to hit it.
All my other webpages work.
Cant make it work in IE either.

What is the web page / site address you are having problems with?

Firefox connection was reset error for a long request

I have a web service api which takes 5 minutes to respond a JSON response message.
In firefox (version 32.0.3), I get a "The connection was reset" error after 2 to 3 minutes.
When I call my call my API in Chrome, there is no error and I get the intended response after 5 minutes.
I have tried the following without any luck:
1. tweaking timeout values in about:config
2. clearing browser caches
3. setting "No proxy" in network settings
4. disabling ad-ons and starting in safe mode.

I tried it with Firefox 29 and even 22, still after 3 minutes it just gives a connect reset.
Also, to provide more context, I am making a REST API call whih takes 5 minutes to respond. When I deploy the application on localhost, it (firefox) does not give a connect reset error and completes. But, when I deploy it on a remote server, it gives this error.

"The Connection was reset" Error while attempting to load Hotmail

I've had Hotmail for a few years now and never had a problem with it. A couple of days ago when I went to check my mail it stopped working and I got the "The Connection was reset" error (See attached picture). I've tried deleting everything (Browsing & Download History, Form & Search History, Cookies, Cache, Active Logins, Offline Website Data, Site Preferences), and it still doesn't work. I'm not running any add-ons/plugins or firewall software. I've tried running Firefox in safe mode and tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing is working. I've even tried on Google Chrome and Internet Explorer and I'm getting the same errors. Ideas?

For some reason the image didn't post or I'm just to dumb to find it but here's the words:
<blockquote>"The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."</blockquote>
Also I forgot to add I can access it from my phone and from my laptop it's just my desktop which doesn't load it. I can also ping www.hotmail.com and everything indicates normal. I can access all other sites from my desktop it just wont load hotmail.

Why has Firefox 16.0.2 under Windows 7 started to give "connection was reset" error only when accessing Yahoo Tech Goups, except first access of the day?

On first access of the day to Yahoo technical groups, I can always retrieve the opening screen, but get no further. Almost all subsequent accesses in that day to Yahoo tech groups using this computer return a "connection was reset error", although I have very occasionally seen a successful access. Rebooting the computer makes no difference. No other websites that I visit give this problem.
I am running Windows7 (auto updates) and Firefox 16.0.2. This is a problem that started about 3 weeks ago, possibly directly after a Windows7, Adobe Reader or a Firefox update. I have tried clearing all cookies and the cache in Firefox. The problem is not seen on other computers running different operating system versions or different browsers that are accessing the Yahoo site through the same internet gateway.

Thanks again for your suggestions and links. I have gone through those, and am sorry to say I am not really any further forward. I have also gone systematically through the yahoo cookies, deleting one at a time. The only one that makes any difference is the T cookie, which must retain the login status as deleting it forces a login at the next access. After a login I get up to about a minute of Yahoo tech group activity before the "connection was reset" error pervades. All the Yahoo cookies are back in place when this happens. Using Private Browsing makes no difference to this behaviour.

"The connection was reset" errors ColdFusion 10

Hello,
I've searched net and Adobe forums before creating the thread. We have webserver using ColdFusion 10 and IIS 7.5, we are trying to retore our ColdFusion website on it. We are getting following errors:
Error 101 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET): The connection was reset.
on some of the pages. The website is not live now so in order to access it you should modify your hosts file using the line : 198.61.145.21 6figurejobs.com www.6figurejobs.com .
The errror will occur when you try to go to any of the companies in Featured compamies section. example:
http://6figurejobs.com/company/Deloitte
http://6figurejobs.com/company/Rain-Bird-Corporation
etc.

I assume this is ColdFusion/IIS settings thread? Could someone assist us with the errors? I would be beyond grateful for any help/advise.
Thank you in advance!

Very interesting ideas “you have”. (That quoted part is a reference to the author’s use of “chickity china” as his forum name, for the sake of anyone who’s heard the classic audio clip of a phone prank. )
This will be great if it does indeed solve things for most folks. For those who may not just want to add the XML but understand what it’s doing, I’ve added some commentary here. I’d appreciate if the author would offer his concurrence that I get it right So basically you’re proposing 3 changes in IIS 7+ with regard to how 404 errors are handled.
And for the benefit of future readers, I’d like to add that you (I so wish people identified themselves) are showing it via XML changes, though one could also do them in the interface. In case someone may either be forced to make changes only in the interface, or they want to better understand what he’s proposing below, here’s how it seems (and I have confirmed by making the changes in the interface and confirmed that it ends up creating the same XML).
At a high level, he (?) is changing controls in what would be the “error pages” feature and then the “URL rewrite” feature. (And he starts out showing how to download the URL rewrite feature for IIS, but some may find that it's already installed, or can be added as a role/service. I can't recall which versions have it built-in.)
And he’s also mentioned making the XML changes in the web.config, which is supposing that the change be done for a given site, but readers should know that they could also be done at either the site or server level in the IIS interface using the “Error pages” and “URL Rewrite” features. (It can also be done at the server level in XML but by changing instead the applicationhost.config file. I will not elaborate here on doing that, but will show how to do it in the interface.)
So first, as for the error pages feature, he is doing the equivalent of removing the 404 handler from IIS for the given site, and he is changing the “edit feature settings” for “error pages” to change to “detailed”, for local AND remote requests. That latter point is very important. (That, too, is a subject worth further discussion, but now’s not a good time for me to elaborate.)
Finally, he’s adding a pair of “url rewrite” rules to handle 404’s differently (for http and https). For each rule, it will be a "blank rule" and an "inbound" one. You can see the values (in his XML) that you’d want to put in (if doing it in the interface) for the rule’s name, pattern, and added conditions (and their “input” and “pattern” values). And the “negate=yes” he shows means it’s a “does not match this pattern” check.
Further, logically, the conditions are saying “don’t run the rule if the requested file is the cffileservlet itself or any pattern starting with it, and don’t match if the requested file name is a file or folder name.” I suppose the latter is to simulate a 404 (the file requested name does not exist as a file or folder) and the former (about cffileservlet) is to help solve whatever has been perhaps the real crux of the problem. Can the author confirm? The last condition is about SSL vs not, and note that he creates 2 rules, one for HTTP and one for HTTPS.
As for how well this may solve the 404 handling problem people have had, I can’t confirm right now. I’ve not got the problem myself, but I have a few clients who do and I will point them to this to see if they confirm it solves the problem for them.
Hope that’s helpful for some readers. And thanks again to the writer, if indeed this solves the problem for folks. (Adobe has mentioned in the bug report about this, #3488063, that they are working on a new connector. It may be that after that fix is applied in the future, one would not need the special handling outlined here. I hope anyone working on that in the future will add further comment/confirmation.)

Message was edited by: Charlie Arehart I added comment on how the first download link refers to adding the URLRewrite tool, and how some may find that already installed.
Message was edited by: Charlie Arehart Also edited the comment to indicate that when adding rules in the interface, you would choose to create a "blank rule" and an "inbound" one.

Network Connection was Reset Error

Tried to sign into iTunes Store and received the following message. "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was RESET! What is the problem. I am using Windows 7 and everthing else is working fine Internet service etc.
Hope someone can help!

The internet connection is not propaly setup on your iTunes app, DO NOT change the settings unless you know what your doing. Also, is this a one time or does it happen permentally, because if it happens permentally then you will need to re-install iTunes
Apoligises for my spelling

I keep getting a "connection was reset error" before step 1 can finish.

I signed up for iTunes match today but everytime I try to match my library it gets to the very end of step 1 and I get this error message "We could not complete your iTunes store request. The network connection was reset. Make sure your network connection is active and try again. " My connection is fine, I tried restarting iTunes and my computer to no avail. Any suggestions?

Just wanted to document my own issues -- started getting this about a week back (Verizion FIOS user). One system I was getting the connection reset as mentioned here, and another I was getting no errors but some downloads were showing up as either cut off or completely blank. This was for downloads btw and not the actual Matching process.
I made two changes to these systems (both Windows 7):
1- Turned off iP6 (since I don't even use it right now)
2- Changed the DNS servers to something other than the FIOS defaults.
So far this has corrected the problem on both systems. The DNS suggestion I found from a search so that seems to have fixed both systems. Woot!

Unable to download iPhone update - "network connection was reset" error

I'm trying to download the latest version of the iPHone software update, but I keep getting the same error 50 - 75% of the way through the download. I get an error that says "Your network connection was reset". All other downloads work PERFECTLY in all other programs.
I've cleared my DNS, I've disabled my McAfee security software...any suggestions??

I am having a similar problem. The iPhone software will not update.
I can (and have) updated the most recent version of iTunes (9.0.3.15). When that completed, it asked to download the newest iPhone software, 3.1.3. I said yes, and the download began.
It shows 'Downloading 1 item iPhone software update (2 minutes remaining) for about thirty seconds, then the number climbs higer for a few seconds and the error message: There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "iPhone". The network connection timed out.
Ever since then, i get the same results and same message no matter what. I have diables firewall, virus protection, rebooted, tried to resotre instead of just update, reauthorized my computer, checked all connections (i can do other updates, surf the web uninterrupted, etc).
I am using a wireless connection, but even the itunes update itself worked, just not the iPhone update.
Thanks for any advice,
Jim
EDIT: I also noticed that itunes changed from recognizing the phone as 'Jim's iPhone' to 'iPhone'

Experiencing near-constant the connection was reset error.

For about the last 3 months, I've had two seemingly-related problems: 1] "The connection was reset/interrupted" error; and 2] web pages loading in a primitive, odd-looking form. Both used to occur every once in a while, but now they're near-constant, to the point that doing anything online is at best a struggle and at worst impossible. The error is especially bad: makes it extremely difficult to reach a web page, load it completely, or do anything should I ever get there (searches, clicking links, etc.). Might be even worse with some sites than others, but it's hard to tell-- seems pretty bad wherever I go on the web. As far as I can tell, this started when I was still using Waterfox, and updated to 32.0.3; I recently switched back to Firefox in hopes of escaping it, but found the same thing happening there. I've tried the suggestions given in the forums (like clearing the cache, removing cookies, pressing Shift while reloading, pressing Ctrl + F5 [for Windows], etc.), as well as uninstalling and re-installing Waterfox, but nothing works. Since my own computer skills are modest at best, I've pretty much run out of troubleshooting options at this point. What I'm looking for is a solution to this, rather than just ways of coping with it. Does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix it? Will it be solved by the next Firefox update? And is there another browser you can recommend as a replacement for Firefox? I'm really at the end of my rope here; please help!
As of 02/26/15, still having the same problem. I've tried scanning for malware (didn't find any) and configuring Windows firewall for Firefox (made no difference). I've noticed that there's a more accurate description for what I'm experiencing than the one I originally posted: web pages can rarely finish loading anymore, unless they're very short (and often not even then)-- if I wait for them to do so, the error usually occurs. Some are usable if I stop the loading process before the error shows up, but many (most?) won't work that way (not enough ever makes it onscreen). Seems like this site is largely unaffected, but places like rogerebert.com or TV Tropes are pretty much inaccessible to me now. Is anybody still interested in helping me solve this? Because I'm about ready to give up on Firefox for good at this point. Please save me from resorting to Google Chrome or, god forbid, Internet Explorer!

Re: my security software: I use Windows Firewall and Microsoft Security Essentials (also Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, if that helps).
I've now tried the above link's instructions for configuring Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access. It may have helped slightly with the error (which seems to be happening a bit less often); however, the primitive-looking-web-page problem is if anything worse, pages are INCREDIBLY slow to load, and the error remains frequent (can't tell if this possible respite is just temporary, or even mere wishful thinking on my part). In any case, though, my original problem hasn't been solved yet.

When uploading photos to Photobucket or Imgur or select forums either nothing happens at all or I get the "connection was reset" error. I have no problem uploading photos to other forums and FB. Firewall disabled, Spyware Doctor OFF, UAC off. Win 7-64.

I have cleared the cache and history on both IE and firefox. When I try to upload photos to Photobucket, I get "IOException" and when I try to upload photos to paleoplanet (yuku) I get the "The connection was reset" firefox error. I can upload photos to FB and other forums just fine. I tried to use Imgur instead of Photobucket and I get a similar failure.

Hi Trond,
Extremely helpful observations here. Am sure quite some folks will hit this thread!

- leave unplugged for about 5 seconds, while you are still holding down the reset button.
- plug the unit back in, while you are still holding down the reset button.
- after about 5 seconds, let go off the reset button.
- go to the webpage of the router.
