    Very difficult without a link or an error message. Have you tried a different browser on the PC in question?

    Firewall in router/modem

    sometimes access through a router/modem is not allowed because the router has a firewall with particular "security settings". Can you access the site via the laptop through the same router/modem that the PC is using?

    It would help if you told us the URL, so we could look, too.

    Otherwise plug it into Down for everyone or just me?...
