Hi, Nothing naughty. Just a regular site namely www.hotukdeals.com


Yes I know that you can all access it. Thats the point. I CANT!!

It's NOT the firewall. I am not blocked from the site. I am using Open.DNS so shouldn'y be ISP related.

It can only be a small virus prog or a setting that has changed but for ONE SITE ONLY.

I'm baffled. any clues anyone.

Hey I am also using openDNS in both Ubuntu and Windows XP. But I am not facing such errors like urs. :cool:

BTW openDNS sometimes block some specific websites using some filter. They usually blocks some known porn sites and some sites infected with malwares. This could be the cause for you and I think it is temporary.
