This looks like a classic “only this PC can’t reach one site” problem. Basic browser and local checks were suggested earlier by and ; below is a compact, systematic diagnostic path that shows what to run, why it matters, and what to try next.

First, gather facts from an elevated Command Prompt so helpers can read exact failures:

nslookup <site>
nslookup <site> 8.8.8.8
tracert <site>
ping <site>
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
  • Use nslookup to see whether your PC’s DNS returns the same address as a public resolver (example: 8.8.8.8). See the nslookup reference: nslookup (Microsoft Docs).
  • tracert reveals where packets stop; if the trace dies inside your ISP or on a peering hop, the problem isn’t the browser. See: tracert (Microsoft Docs).
  • ipconfig /flushdns clears local DNS cache (useful if an old mapping is stuck): ipconfig (Microsoft Docs).

Next checks (if the commands above don’t fix it)

  • Inspect the hosts file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) for accidental overrides. Edit as Administrator to remove any entries mapping the site to a wrong IP.
  • Check system proxy settings and any security suite that can block single-site traffic. Temporarily disable third‑party AV/firewall and retest (or boot Safe Mode with Networking).
  • If DNS and routing look fine on your PC but other networks can reach the site, test using a different network (tether a phone or use a café/Wi‑Fi) to determine whether the ISP or router is blocking the path.

If results are unclear, post the exact outputs of nslookup and tracert (remove any personal IPs if desired). Those outputs pinpoint whether the issue is DNS, local configuration, or an upstream routing/ISP block.

Don't laugh -- I did that once. I got to angry that I tossed the computer, monitor and all books out the back door and smashed it all on the concrete patio! I felt great after doing that :)

It makes no sense that it worked before and now doesn't ,
go to start/ control panel and .click on the windows firewall icon,see if its activated and maybe its blocking it .

ok,when you surf around the net you are able to get to all sites you try and go to except this one ,correct .is is possible you pissed them off some how and they are blocking you ip address from accessing them ..not like from the looks of the site thought .just a thought !!!
So in IE go to tools and internet option and security and make sure you don't have them blocked in the restricted sites section,also while in internet option empty the temp internet files and cookies and history section .
