It works for other people I've sent it to. I have no problems browsing any other web pages. But this ONE website refuses to work! It times out on a ping. On a traceroute, it goes over 19 HOPS before it hits 20, where it times out, and continues to timeout until 30 (only tracing over a maximum of 30 hops). What the heck gives?

It might fix it self later. I had these weird connection problems to other servers, specially game servers while my friends are able to connect with out any problems. And most times, I get it working with in couple days.

probably one of the nodes is dead along the route. Most likly the first ip that times out. Nothing you can really do about it, maybe do a whois on the ip and e-mail the admin. Other than that you gotta go through another internet service.

Have you tried another browser?

I know certain websites don't work with Netscape (my school library's website doesn't)
