What's The Explanation Behind This

[ninjamonkey]

that was the list i was refering to. I said "the proxy list on this site"
i seemed to have exhausted all the proxies.

thanks for the other links.

I'm not happy with just fixing this problem with a proxy though. I want to be able to go to any site i want with my normal connection, like it was before. Any ideas on actually FIXING this, rather than just formulating a work-around?

maybe the sites been taken down

Have you tried the traceroute suggestion.

It could be that there is a break between you and the site, maybe a server down or something.

If that is the case then there is nothing you can do about it. It's just a case of waiting until you can connect directly again.

If it is a case of your ip range being banned then there really is nothing you can do about it.

What was the site name or ip ?

i think they meant to a tracert @ the command prompt.

windows key+r, type cmd, then you&#39;re @ the command prompt, now type "tracert www.yoursite.com"

it&#39;ll then tell you where the connection all hops to, and how long it takes to get there.

and i should do this without the proxy on, right?

yes.

Ok, I have this list of locations and such, and then at line 14 it says "request timed out". Each line after that says request timed out.

ok. i dont know what to make of that ( i&#39;m not *that* smart ). hopefully someon else knows what else is the problem. but if it works with a proxy, then so be it.
