Um...read what I just posted above yours. I couldn't access YouTube website or MOPS website with my IE 7, but could access all other wesbites with no issues. Once I downloaded Firefox I could access them with Firefox, but still not with my IE. Just go download Firefox...it'll take you 5 mins, and if you don't like it, it will take you 2 minutes to uninstall.

I read and fully understood your post, but you missed my post as well. I already stated I am using BOTH browsers and I still can't access the website on either.

I have had Firefox for ages.

Ohhhhhh, sorry, when you said "both" I thought you meant IE7 and IE8 like yeeg said. Have you tried reinstalling? Otherwise, ya I have no clue.

try this:

If it works you have a name resolution problem, if not something is blocking it.

Or they've banned you.

Sorry for the smark aleck post, I have no idea why it wouldn't work. That is an odd problem.. Who is your ISP, Shaw, Telus, etc.? Do you have a firewall on your own PC or some kind of popup blocker? What is the actual symptom - page just times out?

I had that problem just before last years boxing day sale....... never did figure out what happened. I could not access the site from my home computer until about 2 months later.

Option 1: They (or their ISP) have an IPS or Firewall that has detected malicious activity from your IP (not necessarily when YOU had it) and are blocking the IP. Sadly, while it is difficult to get an ISP to give you a static IP, it can also be difficult to get a fresh one... try unplugging your cable modem or DSL modem for a while.

Option 2: Your DNS cache is corrupt, and name resolution isn't working correctly for that site. Run "IPConfig /flushdns" from a command window.

Option 3: Your firewall or other security software is in the way (someone messing with the settings in your home router possibly?). Also, your AV software could be in the way... I've seen AVG do this to sites (yahoo, google) when web content protection was enabled.

Option 4: Your ISP has decided to block that site.

Option 5: Cookies, cache... but you've already gone there.
