Answer was found when I contacted the site and their IP man
asked me to run a TRACERT, and when I gave him the results,
he suggested I power down the router, or check the network
cable, or a few other things. I powered down the router,
and the first time it did not work I tried it again, and
believe it or not, it cured the problem.

This is very strange, as his main page was the only site it
would not load up, but other pages on the same site would
load up. The Tracert showed asterisks in the first hop, so
he knew that the timeout was either in the router or the
modem, but he had no idea why it was just for that one
page..... Go figure. I'm a happy camper...

Since several machines all see the same thing on just one

site, not your end. Let them know; they might appreciate
it.

I started getting this error recently only on one of my
favorite sites. It is the same with all computers on the
network, with both IE and Firefox. There is no firewall
and I can disable the antivirus and same problem.

The funny part, I can connect to a subpage of the same
site, but not the main page, which is where I get my
financial information. I have not see the problem on any
other page so far. Also, one of our network computers
runs 2000 and IE and it has same problem.

Apparently this is a common problem with no definite
answers. Wikipedia has a page on this problem but none of
the solutions I have tried so far has worked.

I even tried typing in the IP address numerically, same
problem, so it is not IP lookup or whatever you call it...

I tried to do a trace but I don't think it can get past
our router.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Jim

Glad it's sorted out. Thanks for the update; I've never seen that happen.

HTH,
