Can't get to some websites

[Colin Payne]

As the title says I'm having problems getting to a couple of my favourites. Youtube is one and the other is a site relating to a band I follow. All other favourites are fine including a few p**n sites so security doesn't seem an issue. I mainly use Firefox but also have the same problem using Explorer. I can't even link to Youtube from Google or another site. Very strange problem. I have done all the usual restarts and cache clearing but nothing, any help gratefully recieved.

Hi

 

What's the bands website?

 

What security software are you running (including firewall)?

 

When did the problem start?

 

Do you get any error messages?

 

Is Flash installed for both browsers?

 

 

Cheers

 

Ian.

It's probably not your pc. I can't get to your bands site or youtube.

Well they're both back so who knows! How Pakistan could affect a forum for an old 80s band I don't know. All a bit strange as other people on the forum have had no problems.
