The Almost Watchlist

Sometimes I’m amazed that the internet works at all. For some strange reason (Comcast?) I can’t access my site from either if my PCs. Yet I can see via my SiteMeter that many people are reaching it just fine. I’m writing this on my Treo, which obviously is also able to reach the site. Hopefully this will get cleared up soon.

We’ve got a decent sized gap this morning (.44% on SPY) and I’m consdering doing ye olde gap fade.

    Try to clear the cache and temporary internet files from internet explorer’s Tool->internet Options. Then close all browser windows and try to access your site from new browser window.

    Tushar,

    Internet Explorer?!? blasphemy! :-) I did try clearing the cache in FireFox (and, yes, I even tried IE). I also reset my cable modem. I can’t even access my email with Thunderbird nor can I access my site using the IP address. so I think the issue is somewhere in the net, outside of my house

    You *should* be able to use tracert to determine on what hop that path is failing. You can run tracert from a cmd shell.

    compare that with trading millions of dollars in a pit with hand signals & open outcry. Just another reason for the “old school” ways :( (:o

    thanks MikeB. I just ran a tracert and it’s timing out at one of my hosting firm’s servers. hopefully they can fix it soon

    I think your ISP blocks your site because of the graphic porn you post.
