Windows Vista Unable to access a website

I am not sure if this is a Microsoft issue or laptop issue but i play an
online game & there is a program that i can use which enables me to play it
automatically, however in order to use this program it needs to connect to
its webpage. This has been working fine til saturday & then it stopped
working. The website that i am not able to connect to (either on FireFox or
IE7) is http://typpo.dyndns.org:7012/.

I have uninstalled AVG & disabled Windows Firewall & still not able to
connect to the website or use the program. I re-installed AVG but had to
install the 8.0 version & as i am sure you know already when you google
something AVG will use its Resident Shield & Linkscanner & let you know if
the links are safe; well, with the link for this website it says that it
cannot scan it & that may be due to the webpage being removed or there is an
issue with it...

I know the webpage is there & that there is nothing wrong as i can use my
girlfriends laptop on the same connection & it works perfectly fine.

I am really stumped with what to do, & if anyone has any advise then that
would be so good...

Thank you

Try cleaning up your hard drive with a program such as CCleaner
(http://www.ccleaner.com/) or DiskCleanup (Programs - Accessories - System
Tools).

Forgot to mention Spybot, Adaware etc too... (if you haven't already tried
them).

A few suggestions.
Can you white list websites in AVG?
How about your HOSTS file? Anything in there?
Do you have other proggies such as Spyware Blaster?
 
Re: Unable to access a website

Is it possible it got on the blacklist by some program like Spybot in the
immunization function?
Check your list of blocked internet sites.
