Exclamation Can't access particular website(s)
I've been having an incredibly strange and annoying problem recently. I can't seem to access my web design portfolio website, nor a few select others. All I get it a connection timed out error. All other websites seem to load fine and with quick succession.

The websites I am trying to load are simplisticstyle.com and igchosting.in

I have tried the following to solve the issue/find the solution:

- Clearing Browser Cache and cookies, Trying in different browsers
- Disabling my firewall
- Restarting my computer
- Trying in different computers around the household, as well as my ipod touch
- Disconnecting and reconnecting my router
- Resetting my router
- Using opendns to change dns server settings
- Asking my ISP (BE Broadband), manually changing the DNS settings of the router using telnet
- Completely moving host and propagating my domain name to that host

Right now, the only way I can gain access is by:

- Using a proxy
- Using a computer outside of my house

But as you know, using a proxy has lots of limitations and annoyances unless you pay for a good server, so it's basically a no-go. What makes this so annoying is that it just seemed to start happening randomly off-the-bat a couple of days ago.

What on earth could the problem be? I honestly have no idea, after trying all that I've done. Please help!
