Can Only Access Website With Proxy

Okay, i can only access my site with a proxy or my server IP. I type in my domain & it gives me a server not found. Every other computer here can get access with the domain but i cant. Domain registered long ago it used to work but now it don't. Anyone know the problem here. I think its that maxed out connections and blocked my computer ? THanks

 

check your PC hosts file and make sure you have not blocked the site

 

Its NOT blocked, i have cleared everything shut my computer off for a day tried everything possible still wouldnt work.

 

have you checked the hosts file?
try nslookup youdomain.com and what output do you get ?

 

do cmd and try pinging ur site also try another browser maybe ur current browser somehow has blocked the site

 

Whats the hosts file? Im sorry im not a server person, just a forum geek.
Its not my browser, i have tried in all. Going to try pinging.

 

Well using windows host files u can control what site is associated with what ip read http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/hosts.htm

tell us which windows do u use

 

Im using Windows Vista Service Pack 2
Oh yeah, i cannot even ping it.

 

than do nslookup and post the results

 

Go to this folder C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

there is a file called hosts without an extension open that in notepad and post the content here

Code (markup):

Thats in the file

 

Then its not a host file issue for sure

 

Most likely the issue is.....have people forgotten about firewalls? Do a traceroute from your computer to the site in question. You might need to contact your host and have them check their deny lists for your IP on their firewalls to see if there's where you're being blocked.

Then do a traceroute from a working computer and compare the results.

 

Well, like fierceservers said, this has gone completely overlooked, but you're blocked in the servers firewall. 99.5%

 

just try checking the .htaccess for the site in question.

from what i see, this maybe the issue since you can access the site/server via its Ip but not via the domain.

there must be something like
deny from ur Ip.

remove this line and try.

post here if you still face problems

 

Its not my .htaccess file.
Now one of my friends cannot access it, same town & provider.
My host has NOT replied yet.

 

it maybe an issue with your ISP.

best is then try running the trace route and see where the packets are dropping.

Also, if possible, send me a Pm with site name, Location and provider.

 

You only have 14 posts. Think i can trust you? Not. Its not my ISP its my host i said im awaiting my hosts reply.

 

I agree with what this person is saying. It is most likely a DNS issue somewhere (your host, your ISP, your domain controller if on a network at home, a cache on your local PC), but the ONLY way to get a better idea about what is happening for you is to do a traceroute (or tracert).

Do it for both the domain and the IP address of your web site. Chances are your host will ask for that too, particularly if, as you say, some people can see it and some people can't, or it works from some places and not others.

The tracert will find all sorts of problems and if it is a firewall issue, it will probably help to identify that too.

 

Cannot trace route with domain just IP.
