  • The website is temporarily unavailable.
  • The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.
  • The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
  • There might be a typing error in the address.
  • If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click Tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

    http://www.hotukdeals.com
    Is what you are typing in the address bar i take it


    If that's what you type then i would guess its a DNS problem might be worth trying another DNS server .
    Google public DNS server is 8.8.8.8 secondary 8.8.4.4

    Hello mate yes im typing that address in - and i have also just clicked on the hotuk deals link you attached but still get that same message.

    I have absolutly no idea what a DNS Server is but i will try and read your instructions - is this going to be easy for a total novice???
