Sorry, we can't find "www.flickr.com". Please check the spelling of the web address. - what do I do to fix this. It is happening on a few websites.
When I try to open certain sites I get this: "Sorry, we can't find "www.flickr.com". Please check the spelling of the web address." I have turned off all the add ons and have rebooted but nothing seems to work. I can open them on Explorer though. Thanks for your help

I keep having this problem with a number of addresses, sometimes with sites that reload by themselves. I have yet to receive any solution though I've submitted the problem many, MANY times. Chrome is looking better each time.
Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
