That’s your local computer :)

363069 2006-06-22 09:22:00 Hello Usagichanafn

Welcome to PressF1

Are you in NZ?

Have you check your computers for any virus/spy were??

Have you done what they said above to check?

Hope to her from you soon :)

As for the virus/spy wear i'm checking it now i have stopsign which is very good about catching these things and it just told me found nothing no spyware or virus so ya at least that is good...

Cool, another one from the US


I'm not sure what my ISP is can you tell me what i need to find that out.

If you are unsure who your ISP is, then you better check with the bill payer/ your dad


As for the virus/spy wear i'm checking it now i have stopsign which is very good about catching these things and it just told me found nothing no spyware or virus so ya at least that is good...

I have never head of stopsign before, but I would also recommend you try Ad-aware SE (www.lavasoftusa.com/) & SpyBot Search and Destroy (http:) & see if that brings any thing up.

If that still does not help, talk to your dad, as he might be blocking you access to that site.

If he is not post back here & we can try a few other things.

363071 2006-06-22 09:42:00 no i know my dad has not blocked me because this is my own computer i bought and i'm a only one with a password to it plus he has seen the site before and he has never seen anything wrong with it since i work there as a mod. plus i'm 17 i dont think he would start blocking sites now lol but i check again with the virus/spyware again and nothing came up again so ya i dont think its that ( i hate not knowing what is wrong with this because i can get every other website but asiafriendsnetwork.com and thats not good since i work there ><" ) Usagichanafn (8334)
363072 2006-06-22 11:00:00 In your case you would be looking for web addresses in your Hosts file that should not be in the file as you will be blocked from visiting them if they are in there.
Not quite true as I also put in frequently used sites against there IP number eg.
210.48.100.45 pressf1.pcworld.co.nz
they will be blocked if they point to 127.0.0.1

363073 2006-06-23 04:37:00 Well i tried again to access the site and i'm still unable to. this is getting really bad i have to be able to access this site soon because i'm already a week behide in my work ( i'm a mod there but i also work in downloads and i'm looking in my emails i'm getting from the site and i'm already up to 23 people who have asked me for downloads on the site and there is no way i can get them the downloads or even let anyone on the site know what is going on unless i can get on the site T_T ) does anyone have any idea that i can try? Usagichanafn (8334)
363074 2006-06-23 04:42:00 E-mail your ISP or get your dad to e-mail your ISP & say to them that you cant access that site.

Also you could try accessing the site via a proxy: www.publicproxyservers.com

& www.megaproxy.com & http://webmirror.phobos.tk/

363075 2006-06-23 04:44:00 Are you able to ping that site at all with its DNS number? Have you tried the suggestion in #3 above to use a proxy server? Have you tried changing your DNS numbers? FoxyMX (5)
363076 2006-06-23 05:07:00 I feel so stupid asking this but what is a DNS *hides* sorry! *bows* and i tried those sites i was given and the first one says i have to buy it which i cant do and the 2nd link didnt work it just took me to a blank page and the 3rd link just took me to a other website...not the one i was trying to access Usagichanafn (8334)
