"Internet Explorer 7 " Address is not valid - http:///

[dlano]

I'm running Vista Home Premium Edition. I cannot browse websites using IE7. I
get the message "Page cannot be displayed" or "Internet Explorer 7 " Address
is not valid -

http:///".

I tried reseting IE7 in the tools menu, but that did not work. I can browse
the web using an alternative browser such as Firefox.

http:///"

is not a valid address is quite true, obviously you should see "

http://",

what happens if you type the address without the third "/"?

As well as resetting IE did you try clearing the Browsing History, including Forms and Passwords, to remove any autocomplete details?

Do you see the same behavior from Safe Mode With Networking, or from Normal Mode but as a different user?
