It has nothing to do with your local computer. A 500 internal server error
means there is a problem with the computer/server that the web site is
hosted on. Nothing you can do to fix it.

I would check your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS file. Open
it with Notepad; if you see that domain listed in there, remove it.

Also try the obvious: clear the browser cache, cloe and reopen the
browser.

Also check for AdWare and (possibly) viruses.
