I would start off by clearing out your cache. It may be that one time the connection failed and now the browser is just pulling up the cached data. Try that first...if it fails, then give me some more details and I'll try to help further.

Good Luck!

Hi have you checked you host file?

Can you ping the site from your PC ? either by name i.e. www.yahoo.com (do you get a IP resolution)
or by IP address ?ping -a 66.218.71.112 (do you get a yahoo name)

if you get neither, or ana address that is differnt from the other PC's check the host file (c:\windows\hosts)
and check to see what DNS servers are listed in the Network control panel under TCP/IP
and make sure they match the other pc's that work.

All the best

Dave
