HELP!! Site Page wont load on just my PC

[FrenchQT]

For the last few days I haven't been able to access neopets.com - the address bar looks correct but the page never loads and troubleshooting says the website isn't responding - I've tried firefox and explorer - at first I thought it was the site because I can get onto other web sites fine - but I was able to access my neopets from another computer yesterday so something is up with this one and I don't know what to do.

Any suggestions would be welcomed

It is possible that you have the DNC "virus", or your hosts file is corrupt, but it could be as simple as "neopets.com" is down. Try "www.neopets.com" instead.

If you are familiar with the "ping" command, you can try to ping "www.neopets.com" to see if your computer can get to it.

For example:

Code:

>ping neopets.com

Pinging neopets.com [206.220.43.92] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.

>ping www.neopets.com

Note that www.neopets.com is responding, but neopets.com is not.

If you get a "Request timed out" for both, try doing a trace route (tracert)

In my opinion you are not right. I am assured. I can defend the position. Write to me in PM.
