I can't get into search engines - says the site isn't found for both Yahoo & Google.
Until yesterday I could get into both search engine sites. Google.ca was my home page until then. Yesterday I couldn't get into google so changed my home page to Yahoo.com which it let me into yesterday but now it won't load either page.
