Weird loading problem

finalj · #1 September 9th, 2007, 06:10 PM

For some odd reason, my browsers will not load ign.com or veoh.com at all. I'm not sure what would've caused the problem. I frequent them often and all of a sudden they stopped loading. I've tried at multiple friends' homes and the sites load just fine.

I'm running Windows XP and using Firefox v2.0.0.6 along with IE v7.

*edit*
The problem has persisted for a week now, by the way.

First off in Firefox go into tools and then "Clear Private Data" and you can delete the same from IE7 too just to free up and get rid of the temp files and cookies.Have you run an updated virus check on your system lately? If not run one just to make sure that you are not infected by a virus. Then download and install Spybot Search and Destroy (from link below). Before running it make sure to update it and then run it once it is done running remove all that it finds.

I cleared the data in my browsers. I ran AVG and it came up clean. Then I used Spybot and Ad-Aware. The error still exists though.

Suppose I'll just have to do some more troubleshooting.
