[NFBCS] Website and browser question

[Curtis Chong]

Good morning Tracy:

 

I was able to reach the knitpicks.com site using my version of Chrome. So,
I'm not sure what is going on here.

 

Sorry.

 

Cordially,

 

Curtis Chong

If I go to knitpicks.com using Firefox, it loads just fine, but, if I go to
the same site using Chrome, it gives me a network error and tells me to
check the spelling. And, if I put knitpicks into Google search and click on
an ad, I get a network error again.

Why?  I thought Chrome and Firefox use the same underlying engine, so why do
I get such different results?

Just curious.

Tracy
