Install Firefox and try that.

sometimes my wireless router has a sulk with a couple of specific websites. I switch it off, have a cuppa, try again and it's fixed itself.

I remember not so long ago after getting a new wireless router I couldn't access a specific website (might have been google or something, which would have been a pain). The problem completely disappeared when I upgraded it's firmware for some reason.

Well folks, I downloaded firefox but no joy, still cannot access the site and for one reason and another I now need to access it for myself which is typical. Really stuck as to what to do next!

Post exactly what Firefox says and also what Internet Explorer says when you attempt to access it.

Try running www.ccleaner.com (untick Yahoo toolbar when installing) and clear temporary files for IE and FF (on Applications tab).
