Anyone good with computers?
Alright, so I have this problem. Recently I haven't been able to access another trading site (hobbykings.com). Everytime I try to access it, it just gives me the 'Server not found' message, the one that you get when trying to access a browser without an internet connection.
I know for a fact that the website is working fine, as 3 other people have told me they had no problems getting onto the site. The last time I was able to access the site was Wednesday morning, using a laptop with Windows XP. Later that day, I bought a new laptop with Windows 7, and haven't been able to go on the site ever since. The funny thing is, I thought perhaps it was the firewall settings on my new Windows 7..so I decided to try my old XP laptop, and I couldn't get on anymore either. So I highly doubt it has anything to do with my firewall as I didn't change the firewall settings on my XP. I tried using different browsers (IE and Firefox), and neither is working. I've never had or seen this problem before so I'm really stumped.
If anyone knows what might be the problem, please let me know. Any help is appreciated.

Unplug and replug your connection from your modem and/or your connection to the outside

I already tried resetting my router, that didn't work either.

I tried Firefox and IE on both my new and old laptops, and none worked.

Almost sounds like you were IP blocked.
Other than that, your local dns just couldn't resolve their request, or your request for some reason. Could be a number of things since 404 covers a broad spectrum.
Not much you can do, besides waiting or tinkering with settings ;) learn about using....http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ But before you do go to grc.com and run their dns tools to see who offers best & SAFEST access.
I'd just get their direct contact email, and give them a shout with your problem.
