    Mine does the same thing when trying to work with kunaki.com. Very frustrating. Nobody on the net seems to know why this is, just google the term "general device I/O error"
    My puter is a new compaq with Vista home premium.

    We need more information to troubleshoot this kind of problem. A DVD-RW IO error can be anything from an old drive, scratched disc, to bad copy protection drivers that mess with the system.

    A General I/O Error when accessing a website would be either a popup trying to sell you junk, or a problem with your hard drive.

    Really though, without more information, these are just guesses.
