You didn't say what browser you are using. I find that when I use IE, sites are available or not through the internet options I have chosen. You might want to check out your Control Panel > Internet Options to see if you have a higher restriction for sites. Not sure if this is why you are having trouble, but it might be worth checking.

Two things have been happening ever since I've started using the DSL connection. I access the Internet in two ways: Directly dialing the DSL modem, and through my laptop that is connected to my PC by a cross cable.

What could be causing these blockages?
