I've somehow managed to stuff up Windows networking just a tiny amount.
Every webpage in the known universe is mine to view. Except, that is, www.popcap.com.
At some point in the last few months my computer decided that Popcap is a no-go site.
In Opera if I stick the name in the bar then it flashes up the connecting bar and then sticks with a blank window. If I use IE it just says 'cannot find server or DNS failure'.
If I ping www.popcap.com it works.
If I nslookup popcap it works
If I tracert to www.popcap.com it works.
If I use my girlfriend's laptop downstairs it works
If I try to connect to the site using the only way that will actually allow me to play their delicious collection of timewasting treats it just doesn't work.
I have tried everythgin in my (admittedly limited) arsenal of network troubleshooting and it just sits there, like a site I cannot access.
Any suggestions?
