Some Web Sites unreachable

Strange deal last night, I was able to retrieve my email no problem, and reach some web sites, but others were unreachable. My browser (IE) would try and try and finally time out. Didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it (for instance I could get to my home page which is Verizon's DSL page, but when I tried to go to my customized Verizon home page-no dice).

I tried a variety of different web sites but some were easily reached (google, ESPN), others couldn't be reached (this one). Also could not get into multiplayer game site of America's Army.

Tried rebooting my computer (XP) as well as my DSL modem and wireless router (DLINK) through which I am directly connected. Also ran my Virus scan, Ad-Aware, and Spybot programs.

Any ideas why this happened, didn't get a chance to try it this morning.
 
I had the same issue with my verizon DSL last night, I was getting an ip just fine, but connections to web sites was sporadic, so I'd guess Verizon had some issues last night. Hopefully it'll be back to normal when I get home tonight.
 
I'm glad to hear your bad news 😀 . I start to get nervous and paranoid and think something serious is wrong. Hold on a minute, I have to go lock my windows and doors!!
 
yea the same thing happened to me . I tracert'd the website i couldnt connect to an a hop near me was down and therefor allothers afterwards were down. Some people i know couldnt connect to the webpage, and some could. dunno why
