attn: computer tech types[views:1534][posts:15]__________________________________ [Oct 8,2007 7:56pm - luke nli ""] for some reason i can't get to myspace on my computer...my wireless signal is pretty weak, but I think something is fishy because I can quickly get to stuff like craigslist, RTTP, and CNN, but I can't get to Myspace or my Bank of America account, or other login type websites. Got any advice for me? |

| _____________________________________ [Oct 8,2007 8:00pm - the_reverend ""] try pinging them. sounds fishy though. 216.178.38.130 is myspace |

| _______________________________________ [Oct 8,2007 11:00pm - the revealer ""] It's possible to block specific sites through your wireless router. You might want to check that, especially if you've never changed the router's default password. |

| __________________________________________ [Oct 9,2007 8:55am - watchmaker666nli ""] its your security settings. When you log into a secure site you have to use ssh, could either be a firewall gone haywire or your browser settings I have seen both of those things do exactly what you are describing |

| ___________________________________________________ [Oct 9,2007 9:01am - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] Start ruling shit out. Disable your wireless connection and connect with an ethernet cable. Try another computer if you can, also. |

| __________________________________ [Oct 9,2007 12:10pm - brian_dc ""] alt-f4 is just about my favorite keystroke ever. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Oct 9,2007 12:26pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I prefer Windows+M |
