Have you got any idea's what this could Be??

working fine here. Are you sure you dont have a program that is blocking the site???

Paul · 03-06-2007, 23:04

Fine here too, where abouts in the country are you?

Halcyon · 03-06-2007, 23:04

I'm on VirginMedia and it is working fine.

Trivium · 03-06-2007, 23:05

Yeah i have checked all my program and i have even closed all firewall program and tryed it,sill no enjoy

Paul · 03-06-2007, 23:06

What firewall? Some need to be stopped from loading and then the PC rebooted to get them out of the way. Just closing the process can actually cause more trouble.

I would'nt normally help a mag but here goes.

Goto Start then click Run, type cmd in the box and press enter.

In the black box type "ping www.microdirect.co.uk" or whatever it was and post the results back.

What a guy.

I lived in Cleadon for a long time.

Your DNS is OK, but the traffic is being blocked, probably at your router or firewall.

Now goto Start - Run, type cmd [press enter]

type "tracert www.microdirect.co.uk"

Post the results.

What type of router you got too.

Bit of a strange one that.

Could not access page from link, pinging page was fine but still would not display, googled microdirect.co.uk then asked google to display cached page, which came up fine, clicked Home from there which gave me http://www.microdirect.co.uk/home.aspx and works fine. Came back and tried link again and now it too works fine.

Trivium · 04-06-2007, 11:33

nope that link does not work either

04-06-2007, 12:01

Not working here in nottingham either.
