I can access this in work but not at home. I have checked the firewall and explorer, Firefox will not open it either.

Help appreciated.

Re: http://del.icio.us/

What happens if you do Start > Run > cmd.exe and then run

ping del.icio.us

If you don't get something like:

then something is blocking access to the site/server.
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

Try

telnet del.icio.us 80

type in a few characters and hit return a few times. What happens? Do you see any HTML before the connection is closed?

Re: http://del.icio.us/

Something is blocking acces to it so - are you sure that it's not the firewall? Or a malware/virus/trojan/rootkit etc. infection?

Are you accessing the net via an ISP proxy? If so can you bypass this temporarily and see if that helps?
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

turned off firewall, still no good, don't know what else to try
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

Scan for infections just in case?

Can you try another PC/laptop on your home connection?
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

tried 2nd PC - same result, logged query with NTL
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

Re: http://del.icio.us/

Site works fine for me right now.

If web access to the site is failing on both PCs then that certainly suggests that the problem lies with something from the router out.
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

I'm on UTV can can connect fine. Could NTL actually be blocking access for some reason!?
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

Can others check accessing this web site please and give result + your ISP name?

It is a worthwhile exercise as this site is a very useful site.

Re: http://del.icio.us/

I accessed it I'm on Eircom BB.
 
Re: http://del.icio.us/

I can access it too.... but havn't a clue what it's about..... am not very comp literate..... obvious.
Maybe it would be of benefit to me, have lots in my 'bookmark' dropdown, maybe I could do it differently....
Any help...

I'm on NTL BB also. Can't see a website using either Opera or IE.

Ping works fine, so does tracert (24 hops, 203 ms total). Not sure about telnet - I can open the console but when I hit any key some text seems to flash up on the first line way too quick to read, and the connection is closed.

I can use a random proxy (from ) and connect to the site that way, so NTL would seem to be blocking. If you need to get to the site this is a way of accessing it.
