This error is seemingly common when you are connected to a Wireless Network. You may have dropped out of range from your Wireless network or the Internet on the Wireless Network became temporarily unavailable. Simply try re-browsing or re-connecting to the Wireless or Wired network your computer is connected. Eventually, the error should go away and your web page should load in Google Chrome.
