Netbook won't load Locostbuilders
As title says, all other sites are fine, Google functions normally, just won't load this site.
Matters not if I use Chrome or IE8 and it's not in a ny blocked lists.
Laptop and Ipod Touch are happy to access it, both via same router.
ETA... ebay acts odd too, log in get a page saying "input error" but go to
myebay and I am logged in.

Have you checked the Hosts file sounds like a Hijack of somesort.
Usual test - things to run
Antivirus
Lavasoft Adware
Search and Destroy (spybot)
Scot's do it better in Kilts.

ditto above download Trend Hijackthis and run it with administrator rights if it comes back with a whole load of alterations to the host file
you got a hijack.
It could alternatively be a DNS problem try setting your DNS to the Google servers 8,8,8,8 and 8,8,4,4 see

Still not solved this one.
No signs that I can find of hijacks etc.
But if I hook up to a different wireless network or a proxy server it loads this site fine.
Checked router status and it's not blocked, all other devices using it don't have a problem.
Using BTs suggestion changing to Google DNS doesn't help.
Looks like a format and re-install

aha .... i had something similar with google ages ago. Its to do with (i think) your dns.
Try going to different web sites, if other web sites work (And are current - BBC a good one for this as you can check headlines / date stories
updated) then clear out every cache and try using a free dns service.

Tried Googles DNS, no joy but the other devices are happy with the change.
