I have a problem loading the homepage of www.deviantart.com
First i thought the server might be down but it lasts for over 2 weeks now and i can access the site from all other PCs. I also have no problems with other homepages.
I'm using Firefox 3.5 and winXP64bit

Since i have recently changed to firefox this might have caused the problem but i'm no sure about that.

Anyone a idea what could cause only a certain webpage not to be acessible from a certain PC?

well clicking on the link made me lose my appetite, (j/k) but with that said you should check your anti-virus software. It sounds like it may have been added to an occlusion list of some sort.

Do you have NoScript or scripts disabled in general?

I load it fine, check your firewall settings.

Well i checked my firewall already and checked the antivirus now. Didn't find anything.
It just tells me that i get no response from the server (after 20 secs or something like that). I think a firewall should istantly send a message.

Just to inform you...
i tried to delete cookies and stuff but nothing worked...
even the other OS on my PC couldn't access the page (though i was always able from my working place)
Now after more than a month it suddenly works again. I have no clue why. Maybe some update of antivirus or firefox.

Ever tried using another browser beside firefox when the page wouldn't load?

Well i had firefox on Win XP and IE on Vista. Different browsers, even a whole different operating system! I have no clue what caused it I just hope it will never happen again. (one month can be pretty long)

I have problems loading it all the time anyway, it's really slow. I have to refresh like 5 times to make pictures come up.
