Why am I suddenly not able to access the site through my computer, but it still works if I'm using an IP changing proxy (which I am doing right now)? What is going on here and why has this happened? Is someone going to fix this?

If I attempt to access the site through my computer regularly I get this error message...

"Not Found

The requested URL /download.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

Ummmmmmm.... WHAT?

Have you done a "virus" and "Spyware" check??
I doubt this a site problem as there are upwards of 2000 users online!

Now I'm getting an error message saying my "DNS" needs to update itself. WTF?

And yeah, I have no viruses. I'm not experiencing any other problems whatsoever with my computer, I just suddenly cannot access this site for some reason!

Start>Run>cmd.exe>ipconfig/flushdns

Then come back.

AND IT HAS TO BE ipconfig/flushdns.

IT CANNOT BE ipconfig OR flushdns ALONE.

Just chiming in to say I'm also having exactly the same problem (not being able to access the site on my IP, not the "please update your DNS" thing), even after following the advice above. I've tried using Firefox and IE to see if it was just my browser, but no dice. Even the age-old solution of "turn the computer off and on" didn't work, haha~ :B

It started sometime yesterday evening for me. D:

Clutching at straws here now. Have you tried turning your router/modem off, waiting 1or 2 mins and turning it back on??

I updated the DNS this morning - it'll take a while for it to propogate fully but everything should be fine in a day or so.

Tumblr - Yes, I have a blog. :)
