Problem with one website
 

What would cause one homepage not to be accessed, if you know the site is OK
?(others can use the site without any problem).

This is the first time I've ever run into this--- no virus present, any
other website I go to works fine. I tried to get there by IP address, still
won't work.

I'm thinking it must be a DNS problem from my end, since the site always
worked fine in the past.

Is your firewall blocking access?

No--- just dumped that stinking firewall I had...

It was trying to block access at another site earlier, but after the
uninstall that site now works fine.

Then it isn't a DNS related issue if you cant load the site via IP address.
MTU perhaps? Or the site is probably just blocking you out of existance
using a .htaccess file. Who knows really?

Check your "host" file. You may have an old entry there pointing to the old
IP.
If you do not have an old entry, try entering in a new one. If it still
does not work, then it is not a DNS problem.
