I can't open the sites I usually open...

well, i assume you understand the contents of that error message, the page could not be found!

first of all, you haven't given much information about your device or your internet connection, which would be essential for helping you, so i will give you a few tips what to check

when trying to access an internet site, your device connects to your router or your isp for a general data connection. then it needs a dns service to look up addresses you type in, then they are asked to transfer their data to your isp and then to your router or device.

so, the first thing you need to check is:
- is your data transfer working (check isp settings in device)
- or if you connect via wi-fi, check your router's settings
maybe your isp changed necessary settings

2nd, how good is your connection. sometimes a connection is just not stable enough to transfer data, maybe it worked before because you are right on the edge of "enough" and "not enough"

is your dns working, has it maybe changed?

and after all, have you tried -=downforeveryoneorjustme?=- (http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/), a service that will check, whether the sites you want to go to are actually online, or not.

maybe that didn't really help you, but to be able to have a more precise image of what is actually wrong there, you should really post more information, like:
model
rom
ie version
type of data connection
country
isp
does the internet not work in general, or just some sites?
give a sample site
and last but not least (although quite unrelated) do you have any browser add-ins, add-ons, extensions or other BS installed? or do the sites require any extensions like java or flash?
