Some times this error message is caused by connection problems. The internet connection is some times stuck due to the over traffic and server down problems. The website you are looking for may contain many items to load. This may be another reason for this error message.

Have you rebooted your machine lately? If so, you may need to check for updates. Otherwise you can install firefox (it's free) and see if that works.
