Hello,
We found the problem.
It is the Intruder Detection System which blocked the request.
After altering some settings. Things are OK now. My reply to
Frank's message has the details.
Thanks for your time and help.
Best Regards,
W. Jordan

To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you include all of previous
message(s) in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.
Note that I asked what websites you *can* access, not which ones you
cannot access. Are you only having problems accessing pages on the
company network (intranet)?

Also this www.sdcatv.net is inaccessable.
Other colleagues can access them. But I can't.
I checked the system with the lastest antivirus software
but found no virus.

What websites can you access?

I met with a weird problem.
When I type a web site's url on Internet Explorer, like
http://www.somesite.com
It immediately returns host not found error.
Actuallly everything else works fine:
I can access other web sites.
Dnslookup command returns correct IP for that site.
I can ping that web site too.
I can use "Telnet www.somesite.com 80" and get contents from that site.
I can even use "https://www.somesite.com" to access that site.
The server of the site is on my company, and the http and https serves
the
same content. But I have no idea why http://www.somesite.com does not
work.
I checked up the hosts file in System32/drivers/etc, no record about
that
site
is in the file.
I turned off all firewalls, the site was still inaccessable.
Other people in the same workgroup can acess that site.
I can use FireFox to access that site, but with Internet Explorer I
can't,
neither
can I access it with Maxthon, Avant Browser, and other IE based
browsers.
I used TCPView to monitor the TCP actions, and found that NO requests
was made when I attempt to access that site from IE.
It seems that the site has been blocked somewhere but I don't know
where.
Is there anyway out except reinstalling Windows???
OS: Windows XP SP2; IE 6.
