Problem accessing one site online

Hi everyone,

I hope someone might be able to help me. I have a HP Pavilion a1730N with Windows Vista Home Edition and IE. The other day the something occured that is blocking me from connecting with one of my websites. I can connect with any other sites I want to go to but not my own site. I visited it early in the afternoon Sunday and two hours later I could not get to the site either through my browser, ftp or to my cpanel.
All I get is an error page "cannot display webpage ". The bottom of the browser shows: res://ieframe.dll/dnserror.htm#

I checked with my ISP and they are not blocking the IP address. I double checked by hooking up another computer to the same modem and I was able to connect with the site so it appears to be something with my HP. My hosting company indicates there is no problem on their end. I ran antivirus/malware several times with no results. I also ran the windows diagnostic scan and it showed everything was ok. I also tried with my firewall turned off, no success.

I also upgraded to IE 8 from 7 and that didn't change anything.
Could there be a simple resolution to this, I hope hope!
Thanks
Joe

 

Hi Arie,
Thanks for your reply. I tried deleting the history but it didn't change anything. I still can't get to the one site while I can connect to all others. When I ran windows diagnostics it came back that they tried to ping the remote site but don't get an answer. Yet if I go to my other older computer and hook it up to the same modem the site comes up ok.
Thanks again
Joe

 

Hi broni,
Just tried Firefox again and received a timeout screen. I had tried it yesterday and got the same timeout. Yet if I try other sites they work fine.
Thanks for the reply.

Hibroni,

the site is www.homebizlink.com I just tried 3 ping services and it successfullly pinged all three times. Yet windows diagnostics on my computer shows it doesn't exist.
Thankd

Hi,
Tried and got "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" which is what I have gotten since Sunday afternoon. Prior to that everything was fine.
Thanks

Still problem with connecting to site

Hi,
I am still having the same problem with one IP address/url being blocked. I am sure it isn't my cable company since I can hook up another computer to the same cable modem and I connect to the site ok.
I was using IE7 when the problem first started and have upgraded to IE8 but problem still exists. I tried FireFox and same problem.

I cannot connect using the IP address (208.100.25.132), the domain name (homebizlink.com), Eudora will not download email from that domain as it has always done, when I go to another domain that happens to have a graphic that is hosted homebizlink.com, the graphic does not come up. I cannot connect to the site with my ftp program or load pages with my cutehtml program.

I tried turning off the firewall and anti virus/malware programs, still no luck. I uninstalled webroot and installed AVG anti virus. No Luck. I cleared browser history, reset IE defauls, cleared temp files, disabled browser addons and reset the cable modem. Problem still there.

I can connect to any other site I want except this one. While I am not a tech person, it seems to me to be a browser problem. I even went in and checked the the HOSTS file and added the IP/domain name in there. The only thing in the HOSTS file is:
127.0.0.1 localhost
208.100.25.132 homebizlink.com

I even did a full restore to a date prior to the problem surfacing.
So I am at a loss. Does anyone have any ideas.
Thanks
Joe

 

Hi Broni,
Thanks for the reply. No I haven't tried safe mode with networking. I am not sure of that procedure.
