Solve : Certain sites won't work! (but do for everyone els?

Answer»

The title pretty much explains it all. For no apparent reason, specific sites I use to visit won't work anymore. I use to visit the sites all the time on my computer with no problems at all, and when the sites stopped working, I don't remember hitting anything.

All I was doing was looking at pictures on ONE of the sites. I went to the next link for the next picture and...poof! Wouldn't work.

At first I thought it was just the server or something, but I found out other people could access it no problem. Then it also happened to another site I visited often. Just stopped working...and everyone else is saying they can get to them!

Now this has been going on for I think a month and it's ticking me off. I want my sites back but don't KNOW how. Anybody know why this could have happened or how to fix it?Put up a link to one of the sites.Here's one:
www.bulbagarden.net/What happens when you click on that link?The page turns over to the typical white and the little loading bar, very slowly, begins to fill up. When it fills, the page sits on blank for awhile, then loads again. Once it finishes loading again, the usual "Cannot FIND server" page comes up.May i ask you if you are on a wireless connection and what INTERNET service provider you are with?I think its because POKEMON is dead


R0SSLmao Ross, thats just plain mean!

The same thing happens to me, I was about to make a separate thread about it.
I cant visit www.yahoo.com , www.apple.com and a few other sites.
I have to search for them in Google, and its getting annoying.I have heard of this and one member of the forum that the other member posted this on said . Its a possibility that yuou IP is not allowing you to acces that page. That is what I heard from 1 person so It might be wrong. If you can reach the site after Google, this smacks of a virus. The clincher is below:

Mepple, if you Google for the sites, and click the link, does the site load normally?

If the answer is yes, I'd say a rogue program is at work. If not... we'll continue.I don't know about Mepple, but my computer loads the sites correctly when you search for them.
Its still rather annoying, and I doubt its any kind of malware (watch as someone quotes these words)


ADDITIONAL:
I have Anti-Virus protection from Yahoo, with Spyware/adware scanner as well as Microsoft Anti-SpywareQuote

I doubt its any kind of malware (watch as someone quotes these words)

You mean like me? I highly doubt that it's not malware. But let's not clutter this thread with HJT logs from two PC's; that's just confusing. Let's wait for Mepple to give his answer.
