Earlier today when I opened my laptop I saw a site I use a lot was still open - obviously I didn't shut it down last night.

I logged of then ad now it won't load just showing blank screen with the web address in the address bar.

The site is: http://gb1900.org

I am using Firefox with Win10 but it still wont load in IE.

Can anyone suggest how to solve this?

    Looks like the site is having issues, http://www.gb1900.org/press-release.html works.

    BUT two/three things to try next time:

    1) Hit CTRL+F5 to do a FULL reload/refresh of the offending site.
    2) Failing that, clear the browser cache.

    3) Get a VPN, the site might have been blocked for containing [STRIKE]opposing political views[/STRIKE] pirated content.

    LOL. It appears to be very subversive. :)
