    At work I manage a network system running under Windows XP Professional with SP1 and all updates, with the exception of SP2, installed. Also installed in the system is a Netgear Prosafe VPN DSL/Cable Firewall.

    Yesterday one of my employee's brought to my attention that they could not access a certain .ORG website from their workstation. I tried from my workstation and I too can not access the site, but if I try it at home or from a computer off site the page loads just fine.

    Any suggestions as to what might be blocking certain .ORG sites from loading??

    Easiest if you post the URL here so we can take a direct look.

    Worked for me. Might look in the HOST file and or compare security settings to the machines that can access it.
