Cant access a certain website

[cyclones]

Hello. So I ran into a issue. On my windows 7 pro machine, I cant access a specific website, but all other computers in our network can. It gives me a Page cannot be displayed message.. Any solutions?

Go to the Start Menu > All Programs > Accessories

Right Click on Command Prompt and choose "Run as Administrator"

Type

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit Enter

This will flush the DNS Resolver Cache which might fix it.

Nope, that didnt work.

Have you tried another browser?
Does your network use a proxy at all?
Open the command line (right click, run as admin) and try to ping the full page 'www.domain.com', no quotes. Or do a 'tracert 'www.domain.com', no quotes to see if it can find it's way to the web page.

Yes, Ive tried it with IE, Chrome, and Firefox and they all dont work.. Doing the tracert and ping both bring back a "General Failure" error. Im running Win 7 Pro if that makes any difference?

What is the error code the browser returns? 404, 403, etc.

Firefox:
The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Internet Explorer:
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

Statically set your IP/subnet/gateway for a proper IP on your netwwork. Put in an external DNS entry. Find out your ISP's or use OpenDNS 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220.

I have it setup like that already, on all computers in my network.. It just doesnt make sense how other computers in the network can access the site, but I cant.

Can you find out the IP of the site (do a WHOIS lookup of the domain) and ping it via IP.
