    This is the only site, besides about two or three, that my internet will allow me to access.

    Yeah, my internet is being really werid. In IE I can't get any web pages at all. (Page Cannot be displayed) and then in Opera I get very few too work, the rest "Could not locate remote server."

    I reset the cable box by unplugging it like my mom said, and now I can't even get into that email to email her back. (it was the last email I could access) So now I have no clue what in God's name to do.

    This is why cable is evil...when it does shit like this...

    try resetting your router. i lost my internet entirely last nite. no reason. just suddenly "a network cable has been unplugged"

    Sounds like either a router/firewall problem, or cable modem problem. I would reset both, then you should be fine. ( I get that with Time Warner occastionally, and I usually just have to reset the modem & router.)

    Have you kept your computer updated? (Assuming you run on windows)

    Well now this is odd. Because I did reset it like 3 times and it did nothing.

    Well, it's back for AIM and Opera...IE still doesn't work. Meh Microsoft...

    That's why I asked about the updates. There was an IE update not long ago.


    There are better browers than IE anyway. I never was that happy with Opera though. probably cause i have a cracked version :p

    (I'd also suggest calling your cable company. I have Time Warner and they answer pretty damn fast.)

    Sounds like you had a bad DNS server, a call to your ISP would probally have resolved it too.
