I've been traying for some time now to figure this out. But it doesn't make any sence to me.

I can visit any website, and never had any problem before. I have tryed it with 3 different browsers, I've disabled any firewall, security programs, security settings to no avail.
I've visited the website from work and a friend's pc at his house. Which is really wierd.

The only thing I haven't checked, is the router/modem. I don't know my way around that 100% (not even 60%), but I haven't seen anything wrong there (unless I am not looking in the right place).

Some help please? Anything? Maybe a small guide of steps and things I should check?

P.S. Using XP. I don't have an other connection at home, just wireless.

Can you access things like MSN messenger or the like a program that requires internet connection to work but not a broswer?

Goto start then run then type in cmd then hit enter then when the box comes up type in it ping www.google.com do you get a reply if you can connect to msn or something but not access any web sites then you have a DNS issue.

Did you allow them to Import the IE Settings the first time you ran them?

If so they have imported this Block from there.

If not can you try another computer on this connection and see if that can reach these sites?

It is possible that your ISP is doing the blocking here.

No, I never import anything, not even the bookmarks.

Can't check with an other pc.

How can I find out if the ISP is doing the blocking?

Run this command:

ipconfig /flushdns

Power off the router for 30 seconds.

Try again.
