Cannot sign into Gmail

Windows XP, SP 2, O.E. I use Gmail as a spare email address and suddenly, I
cannot open Gmail. When I try to sign in, it says "Opening page
http://mail.google. . ." and then flashes "Done". These two options just
keep flashing back and forth and my email never opens.

Rather than bother you good people, I tried to join a Gmail forum to ask
this question and all I get is a run around, i.e., I have to sign in to get
information but I have to sign in to get information; around and around.  I
need some help from you or a suggestion of a new group to contact.

Hello Inez,

I've have a Gmail account, and I go to www.gmail.com  to get it.

Give this a try.   Internet Explorer > main menu /Tools/Internet Options >

Security Tab/ click on green icon Trusted Sites/click Sites button.

Look very closely at line that says:  

"Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone" to
*clear* the selection.
(e.g.  You want that to be un-checked (un-ticked)).

In the "Add this Web site to the zone:" field, add these  entries to
list of "Trusted Sites" --

type
http://*.gmail.com    (click Add)

 Click OK.   Apply changes to IE browser.

Post back with result / or questions.

P.S.  May as well also add 2 more entries to trusted sites.

www.google.com
mail.google.com

I think you also need to allow accepting of cookies.
