I don't know what a nslookup is nor do I know what a traceroute is. I
don't have a firewall on this machine, do have spybot and windows
defender and avast, but I think I've disabled these, but not sure I'm
really getting them turned off. I can ping the address 72.46.157.51 and
get a response on this machine, but don't get an answer from
blindbargains.com. I got the address from pinging blindbargains on
another machine. All are behind the same router, and so far, this is
the only page that does't work. Oddly enough, if I go to google and do
a search for blindbargains and try to go there from google, I can't get
there either. I also replaced the hosts file on this machine with no
difference. Any other ideas welcome. I'm kind of dumb when it comes to
this sort of thing.
