Has anyone else experienced not being able to get on MSDN for the last 2 weeks or so?

Well, I haven't been able to get on any of the something.microsoft.com except for blog.microsoft.com in the last couple weeks. Both IE and Firefox bring up that they cannot find the server. IDK what the problem could be, and I am starting to get annoyed because I have programming stuff I need to look up.

Any ideas? I don't have any problem with other sites.

How should I know? If you can't get to certain sites, then you could have virsues and spyware, although I haven't heard of them blocking MSDN. Could have a corrupted search engine provider.

Try pinging msdn, then opening the IP address.

msdn.microsoft.com

I didn't even think about the hosts file. Thanks. I cleaned out my temp files, cookies, etc....a few times actually, made a new hosts file, restarted my comp...and it works now.
