unable to view specific web site

[Guest]

windows xp pro & 2000 (laptop), dsl, linksys wireless g.

everything works fine, unable to view one specific web site when logged on
at home. Cannot duplicate with any other web page? Never had this problem
till last 2 weeks.

when traveling with laptop (not at home), can view same web page ok.

Is it possible, spyware or logging program installed without my
knowledge?..or other problem with router /wireless system?

thanks in advance

Scott,

By any chance, do you have PPPoE service?

What specific error are you observing? What website is having the problem?

Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing.

Scott,

Definitely something about that site. Seems to block pings. OTOH, I can load
the web page with no trouble.

Did you check out the web pages re MTU and PPPoE? Here's the official MS
article:
