Try clearing the internet explorer cache? The page displayed fine for
me on both Internet Explorer & Firefox. Possibly there is a cookie
issue and you should clear cookies as well...like a login or saved
information a spy blocker or browse-safe agen might block? Worth a try.
 
I just wanted to say that I am having the same issue with the site:
www.wageworks.com I cannot pull up your website either!

I guess we have the same problem. Will you let me know if you find a
fix for this problem? I will do the same.
 
I think I found a fix for this problem, at least on my computer. My
ISP is SBC/ AT&T/Yahoo DSL. I also have SBC dialup for emergencies.
Out of curiosity, I tried the dialup connection while still connected
to DSL.....and guess what.......I was able to connect to both your page
and the page I was having trouble with!

Out of curiosity, is your ISP AT&T DSL?
 
Four things to try:

1. Clear your TIF and History completely:

2. Check your Cookies folder and delete any cookies that relate to the
sites in question.

3. Check your Hosts file as per this article:
Problems Using Internet Explorer with Incorrect Hosts File
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q219843

More info on the Hosts file:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/hostsfaq.htm

4. Got to a Command prompt (Start...Programs...Accessories) and type in:

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit Enter.

It may be a DNS issue.

FWIW the first time I tried it my DNS took some time to find it

<example>
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: multitheftauto.com
Address: 67.19.87.235
Aliases: www.multitheftauto.com
</example>

If your DNS is repeatedly having the same problem
or not finding it at all it would explain your symptom.

Also notice that the name that you are using is an alias.
I just tried to load it using the canonical name
and verified (using the Privacy Report) that that name was used
for loading the rest of its content. So you could try using it instead too.

BTW that page was extremely slow to load.
The window initially goes black and stays black while the page
is loading the rest of its content. If you are seeing that your symptom
would indicate something entirely different but in that case
you would be able to use View Source to see what you are getting
(e.g. the part that causes the window to go black.)
