Do you both go through the same firewall?
How about a tracert, and try the regular forums from your PC.

Same firewall.

I cannot get to forums.anandtech from my system BUT I am getting fine to subscriber.anandtech.com

Could this have something on their end.

I can ping the subsciber server from his system but not the non subscriber
