Hello, I have been having some problems visiting a
website. Some how that site is being blocked. Does
anyone have any ideas how that site is being blocked on
my system from IE?

Thanks For Any Help,

Paul,
Symtom: Page cannot be displayed / Cannot find server or DNS Error

In the event you can not access a site and you believe it
may be due to an entry in the HOSTS file.

You can use a simple batch file to rename the HOSTS file "on-the-fly".

Hi Paul,

If it is blocked by IE it then open IE and click on Tools
and then on Internet Options and the click on Security and
then on Restricted sites.
If you find the site here then remove it and you must be
able to access it.
If you are on Internet Explorer 6.0 then you must also
have Privacy Tab where you can change the Security to the
Level you want it to be so that IE does not get in your
way of viewing the sites you want to.
Do let me know if it worked.

Yours,
