Do you know what's happening with their site? Can't open their site for the second day now ....

TOS: JaS reported some in the meantime fixed problems with his DNS provider a couple of days ago, when I also couldn't access VE and HFE. DNS related stuff may sometimes take a while to propagate through the net, though - so maybe you're just experiencing that hiccup with some delay...

Greetings from Munich!

Couple of things to try...

One:

Use the web site isitdownrightnow.com and put in the web site name. It will tell if it's really down or just a problem for you.

Two:

Open a command window and type "nslookup www.vinylengine.com"

You should get something back like:
Server: dns.yourisp.net
Address: ###.###.###.###.###

More stuff....
Name:
Addresses: This is the important part...

If you see numbers under addresses, then DNS (Domain Name Services) is working and routing you to that server.

If you get addresses, post those back and see what other people get.

I got 67.225.154.41

You should get the same number if the DNS routing is correct.

If you don't get an address returned, try typing "ipconfig /flushdns" and then try the nslookup command again. flushdns will flush what is cached in your DNS resolver cache.

Not to change the subject or anything... :-P

...but, hey, T.O.S., is that a Philips reel to reel (like an N4506 or N4422 or suchlike) in your avatar?
 
Have you flushed the DNS cache?

If that didn't work, set your DNS servers to the Google public servers and flush again.

Did flushed DNS ,didn't work
I'll try the second variant , just don't want to screw up something , it's not the waters I'm trained to swim if you understand me:)
Thanks for helping

Do you use static or dynamic IP addressing? Might try changing your DNS or adding a second one like 8.8.8.8.

I'll bet it's a BHO though, if you can surf and resolve other site's addresses. Might need something like "Hijack This!" to get rid of it. Be careful.
