IE Stops Responding

[Guest]

Internet Explorer is working fine, however, there is one site that it will
not let me access. When I try to get there via links or my favorites IE stops
responding. But I went to the site and everything worked fine a couple of
days ago. Any thoughts? The only change to the computer that I am using is
that I performed Disk Cleanup and Disk Defragment yesterday.

Four things to try:

1. Clear your TIF and History completely:

2. Check your Cookies folder and delete any cookies that relate to the
sites in question.

3. Check your Hosts file as per this article:

More info on the Hosts file:

4. Got to a Command prompt (Start...Programs...Accessories) and type in:

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit Enter.
