CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 60

A user is attempting to browse the internet using Internet Explorer. When trying to load a familiar web page, the user is unexpectedly redirected to an unfamiliar website. Which of the following would MOST likely solve the issue?

Answer options

• A. Updating the operating system
• B. Changing proxy settings
• C. Reinstalling the browser
• D. Enabling port forwarding

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Changing proxy settings is likely to resolve the issue since incorrect proxy configurations can lead to redirection to unfamiliar sites. Updating the operating system, reinstalling the browser, or enabling port forwarding would not specifically address the redirection problem caused by proxy settings.
