Thread: My PC is blocking the adobe website!


well strange one. few months ago, tried accessing adobe site no luck - down. assumed 1 off thing. while later, tried again, still no luck. clicked link tonight see if there newer version of flash - site still down! surely www.adobe.com hasn't been down several months?!

ran tests.
target site: www.adobe.com

firefox: failed connect
chromium: oops! link appears broken.

loaded ubuntu 9.10 beta vm up, loaded firefox 3.5:
firefox: failed connect

tried pinging:
code:
tom@blacknight:~$ ping -c 4 www.adobe.com  ping www.wip3.adobe.com (192.150.8.60) 56(84) bytes of data.  blacknight.local (192.168.1.2) icmp_seq=1 destination host unreachable  blacknight.local (192.168.1.2) icmp_seq=2 destination host unreachable  blacknight.local (192.168.1.2) icmp_seq=3 destination host unreachable  blacknight.local (192.168.1.2) icmp_seq=4 destination host unreachable    --- www.wip3.adobe.com ping statistics ---  4 packets transmitted, 0 received, +4 errors, 100% packet loss, time 3201ms  , pipe 3
this got me thinking, maybe router how blocking site? tried website on wifi enabled phone - , site works!

ideas causing this? strange how ubuntu, , guest in virtual machine can't see site.

could /etc/host file blocking site...
