Every time I go to a website like say Amazon, the site doesn't recognise my pc and I have to go through a security check to get on to their sites.
This Omen desk top has caused a lot of problems in the 2 years since I bought it, I've had to reset it 4 times back to factory settings due to it's faults! Never going to buy another HP.

Hi @Johnr650
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out!
I understand you've been encountering repeated security verification checks when visiting websites such as Amazon, and I can certainly see how inconvenient that would be. I'd be happy to help look into this with you.
To better understand the situation, could you kindly share the following details?
- Which web browser(s) you're using (Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox, etc.)
- Does this happen on all websites or only specific sites?
- Have you noticed if the issue occurs on other devices connected to the same network?
- Are there any error messages displayed during the security verification process?
In the meantime, kindly try the following steps:
- Clear your browser's cache and cookies.
- Ensure your browser is updated to the latest version.
- Temporarily disable any browser extensions, especially security, privacy, or ad-blocking extensions, and test again.
- Run Windows Update and install all available updates.
- Perform a network reset:
- Open Settings > Network & Internet > Advanced Network Settings > Network Reset
- Restart the PC after the reset completes.
- Try accessing the affected websites using a different browser to determine if the issue is browser-specific.
- Check the system date, time, and time zone settings and ensure they are correct.
- Run HP Hardware Diagnostics a system test - Quick test ( Click here for steps ) to verify there are no underlying hardware-related concerns.
I hope this helps.

Hi @Johnr650,
Since the issue is occurring only with Amazon and eBay, it is likely related to how those websites are validating your browser, network connection, cookies, or security settings rather than a hardware issue with the PC itself.
