That's strange. Is this all the time or just recently?

Looks to me like a routing issue beyond your PC. Could it be an issue with your internet connection provider and their routing setup? Perhaps you could ask them. Maybe they are not on good terms with a rival telecoms provider

LoLth

had the same problem a while ago. If you are on eircom DSL, ring eircom and ask them to drop the connection, turn off your modem/router , turn it on again and it should reconnect. try going to the website again. I thought it may have been an eircom routing problem but I'm not sure.

if it's all websites and you can ping and tracert fine, you may have a browser hijacker.

hey,

Its only recently as in last 2 weeks. at forst i taught it was some virus/spyware i got so i formatted and reinstalled windows and its still the same. i never changed any router setting but double checked them anyways and seem grand.

ill try given netsource a call and see what they say. its a weird one to be sure.

btw can anyone who has the know tell by the tracert above what/where the problem might be??
