It works for me too. Maybe there is a breakdown in a router between your ISP and the website. Try pinging it and you can see if it stops somewhere.

"Maybe there is a breakdown in a router between your ISP and the website. Try pinging it and you can see if it stops somewhere. " The Internet is not static. More to the point, if there is a problem at the ISP gateway (WAN-level), that will affect all Internet traffic for a client. Once packets reach the wild (as virus enthusiasts term it), they are passed through many routers, which keep dynamic routing tables of neighbor routers. These routers essentially ensure that multiple paths exist. If a breakdown occurs from client A to ISP gateway B, there may be a problem. If this is a heavily populated area, there is only a slowdown in service. With the maturity of cable broadband networks, DSL using the POTS, and increasing fiber channel adoption, outages are becoming less and less a problem. If a breakdown occurs from client A to Server C, there are thousands (sometimes exponential numbers) of paths for the request to take. If the packets are dropped, the request can be resent or a router may communicate failure to the client. In the worst case the client has to resend the request, which on its second trip may encounter the same router which discovered the broken link and now has a reliable substitute. In the real world, the second route can be completely different. There are several common algorithms and internetwork communcation protocols that determine this. The Internet is not bound by direct routes. If necessary, packets needing to go from China to Japan can cross Europe, head over the Atlantic, and then around to Japan. Nothing this extreme happens because the system is well balanced through constant uptime.
