Hi,

I'm unable to see www.imageshack.us

I'm not running a firewall nor proxy. My ISP is not blocking this site. I've
cleared cache, cookies in IE yet there is no way for me to access it!

But on my other computer I'm running the same software, same ISP, and it
works fine!

This is a big problem for me as I use this site very often and am unable to
view any images hosted on it! This has been going on for a few days now, yet
like I said, from my other computer it works fine!

It's really important for me to solve this problem!

Any ideas?

Thanks

Just an idea. Shortly after I switched to WinXP Pro there were a few web sites
I couldn't see also. I called the manufacturer of my computer and they told me
to go to the Java site, think it is Java.com, and update my java. I did and
everything started working just fine. Worth a try?

But the sites worked fine and then they just stopped!

Anyways, I tried this and it didn't solve my problem! In the meantime I've
also recovered my system to factory settings but I'm still unable to see
imageshack.

While on my other computer everything works fine! Like I said, everything is
the same except IP (ISP is the same)! Is this a possible error? My friend
said something about DNS but I don't know what he was talking about!

Any more ideas?

I do not know what the problem is, but it has nothing to do with java. I
have no java of any kind and http://www.imageshack.us/ opens fine for me.

Do you have a custom HOSTS file?
If so look in there to see if imageshack is listed.

Look to see if imageshack is listed in Restricted sites in IE.

IE | Tools | Internet Options | Security tab | Restricted sites |
Sites button

Hope this helps. Let us know.
