Do you think this is a hardware or software problem? Software.
What would you look for? Test the site with an alternative browser (such as Firefox or Chrome) to see if the problem persists. An issue with your Internet Service Provider or network setup is more likely the cause rather than Internet Explorer itself. You can also run the troubleshooter tool from the Network and Sharing Center to look for potential problems and fixes. If the issue only appears in Internet Explorer, ensure that you are running the latest version of the software via the Windows Update component of Control Panel.
What would you do to try and resolve the problem? First you might check your typing to see if it is misspelled or typed different than the page you are trying to locate. Second try checking your internet connection. Third, you reboot your computer. Fourth, check your modem to see if it connected or turned on, you can also reset your modem. Then restart your computer.
How would you know that you solved the problem? The explorer window would actually be displayed.
