Cannot Access a Particular Web Site

Solutions:
Web sites are not permanent, and may change URL addresses or even close without notice. In such cases, hotlinks to affected sites are not always updated or deleted right away. If you receive an error message when attempting to access a particular site, try searching for a more up-to-date URL via a Web index.

Some access providers maintain their own archives (caches ) of Web sites in order to speed up access. Sometimes, this archiving process will inadvertently disable certain Web functions, making some pages difficult or impossible to access properly. Also, this archiving process can prevent you from loading the most current version of a page (a dilemma most noticeable when accessing news sites or other resources that change frequently).

Your access provider may maintain firewalls that prevent you from accessing certain Internet resources for security reasons. Contact your service provider if you believe this to be the case.
A Webmaster may establish bozo filters that block certain users from accessing Web pages. Some bozo filters are temporary, so wait a few days to see if it is removed. Otherwise, try contacting the Webmaster to see if there are other ways of accessing the site.

Some Web sites require registration before you can access them. Follow the registration procedure (which may require you to pay a fee before full access is granted).
Your access software may contain a monitoring application that blocks access to Internet resources considered inappropriate for children. Disable this application if necessary; if you need help, ask your service provider.

If the server containing the site is overloaded or "down," you will not be able to access the site. Try again later.
