Hi,
I am at my wit's end and any ideas are greatly appreciated!
The Problem: I cannot access one and only one specific internet domain.
Description: I regularly use a blogging site, posterous.com (184.106.20.99). Three days ago I performed an offline archivation using SiteSucker. Shortly (but not immediately) after that my computers simply stopped being able to load the domain posterous.com.
Additional puzzle: I use two laptops, one has 10.7, the other 10.6. Both laptops time out on posterous.com, the one I used SiteSucker on and the other one, as well. All browsers on both computers return the same "The connection was reset" error message (Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome). My internet connection otherwise is fully working.
Troubleshooting I have already done: thought it was my home wifi router. But one of these laptops cannot access posterous.com at my work. At home my smartphone can access posterous.com. The laptops do not have firewall enabled. I even ran a virus check. All of my browsers work with all other sites and none with posterous.com. Any trace I put on posterous.com reports that the server is up. Friends have also checked it, there's nothing work with the server.
Any thoughts? Any diagnostic software or commands that could help me find out what happened? What could be the issue?
Thank you!
