    Windows 7 cannot access intranet websites when first brought into the workgroup.
  • Details
    Windows 7 cannot access intranet sites when first accessing them. You have to continue trying and trying to get Windows 7 to finally pull the pages up, but once Windows 7 pulls the first intranet site, it will not have any issues in pulling up the others sites on the intranet.
  • Recreate Issue
    To recreate this issue.
    I am open to comments on why this issue happens, I am thinking that it is either a security feature or windows 7 has to get the cache built up, but not sure if either of them are accurate in explaining as to why this happens.
    It took over 2 minutes for Windows 7 to pull the first page.
    Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Windows NT 4.0 Server, neither of these have this issue.
  • Resolve Issue
    To resolve this issue, just keep on loading the pages into your web browser until the sites are pulled up into your browser.
    Time: From 30 seconds to several minutes, depending on the traffic on your network.
