    Windows firewall is off.

    I'm having the problem again, after three days of no problems....

    I just had a thought! There is one other thing that could cause the same pages to fail to load every time only on one computer but not on other computers.

    It is your Hosts file on that problem computer. It is in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. Right-click on the file and select Open. From the Open With list select Notepad. The file should have about 17 comment lines (beginning with a #) followed by just this line:


    127.0.0.1 localhost
    If it contains any other non-comment lines list them here so that we can have a look at them.
