Hello out there....
I am not sure what setting or error I executed, but I can no longer access Wired New York from my home PC. I can access EVERY oter website out there, butWired New York. Zippy suggested I try Mozilla in addition to Internet Explorer - and I did. I get the following messages:

I get this message on Mozilla:
The connection has timed out
The server at www.wirednewyork.com is taking too long to respond.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

I get this on IE:
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.
What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

This only happens on my home computer and it only happens with WiredNewYork. I deleted all Temp Internet Files, All Cookies, All preset forms - EVERYTHING.
Any tech heads have any possible solutions? Very frustrating when I can't access the only site I want to access. The only correlation I can see is with upgrade to IE V.7. I imagine it could be another cause, but I'm in the dark.
Do I need to dump this computer (Dell Dimension 4600)? Someone point me to a good all-in-one MAC with equivalent MS Office applications.
I'd prefer to get the PC to work, but MAC is my backup.
