problem accessing a certain website

[martyd1901]

I have had this problem for the past couple of days and I haven't been able to get on to a certain website at home. I'm running Windows 7 with all the updates. My dad is running the same and it is happening on his PC with the same website.

I know the website isn't down as I can access the website through the same router with my phone.

The few things i have tried is a dns flush as i can ping the sites ip address but not the car insurance credit card application at whatever.com address.

and a reboot.

I have IE8 and Opera installed and the same thing happens on both browsers.

Which site?

 

[kucing13]

name of the website?

Welcome to the George Best Carryduff MUSC

I know the website is up an running as i have tried it on another PC without windows 7 and on a completely different network as well

Have you tried a winsock reset??

 

[manhunter2826]

Just tried and no probs this end .

Flush your DNS cache

ipconfig /flushdns

Cant open. Just tried from an xp machine with a dialup connection.

Wonder if it has anything to do with location. Am in Africa right now.

But can open the cached version of the page.

Sometimes that happens...

When I was in Germany.. I was not allowed to go to www.hulu.com

it knows where I am located by IP and DNS but usually it will tell you on the website; why?

thanks for the replys

I know the site works as i am on my phone and it works. It also works when im at work.

I've done a dns flush and the winsock reset with no luck either

 

[kucing13]

i try it and it works.. web page shown normal :sarc:

Re the potential geographic block -- try accessing from a proxy such as Ninja Cloak | Fast, free, anonymous web browsing with NinjaCloak.com

 

[kucing13]

well judging from using a proxy, several features or script might not work properly.
but try it just like manhunter suggest. i would add Vtunnel , theunblocked

 

[martyd1901]

for some reason the ninjacloak didn't work at all that page didn't work.

but for some reason i did another dns flush and a restart today and it started working on my PC
I did the same to my dads PC as well.

Dunno why it didn't work yesterday

Thanks for the replys
