Hey guys what happened to thehulltruth??? If it is still there I have not been able to access for a long time.

Seems to be working fine right now for me.

Thanks DeepV, That's what I figured I seem to be having a dns problem and I can't even ping the site. I guess I will have to work on it from my end. I can't access it with firefox or explorer.

Windows? Check your hosts file, it lives here: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. Normally there shouldn't be any entries in it.

Thanks guys t i have tried that already, still nothing.

what's your network setup like? a simple cable/dsl connection with their modem and your router?

And list any 3rd party apps that you're running that could get in the way... firewall/antivirus/security-type apps.

Standard dsl, avg free that's about it. I try to keep it simple. I can't even ping the ip address from the cmd screen. 67.201.16.17, I looked it up on whois. I shut down the firewall and avg and it still does not ping.

update, I am running windows one care system scanner and it will take a few hours, hopefully this will fix it.

are you using a DSL router deal? Like a Linksys? Or, maybe if you're with Qwest you have their ActionTec unit.

post the ip address of the DNS server(s) you're using. Do an ipconfig /all in a CMD window to get that information.

might not be related to the PC at all...

if you're able to provide me the DNS servers, I may be able to do an nslookup off of them to see if they really know where to go for thehulltruth.com

192.168.254.254

Thanks for working on this!

My dsl is through frontiernet.net, it's a speedsteam router provided by frontier.

hmmmm.. copy and paste all of the ipconfig /all info. that's in "internal" IP address. I've seen ISPs do that (keep everything on a private network), so it's hard to know what they're doing without all of the IP config information.

you could also try:

nslookup

then:

thehulltruth.com

if nothing comes back, type:

server ns1.qwest.net (that will run your next nslookup through their server.

then type again:

thehulltruth.com

took me a while to figure how to copy, her it is.
