Cannot connect to .edu sites or Microsoft.com
I'm using FireFox on a MacBook Pro. I've been trying to access my school's website for about 3 weeks now and am unable to do so. I keep getting an error message that says "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server". The same thing happens when I try and access any other website ending in .edu . I've had no problems accessing the site from other computers except this one. Also, I am unable to access Microsfot.com or any other web page ending in ".microsoft.com" .
Any suggestions?? PLEASE HELP! |

Can you access the sites if you put www in front of the address? I've noticed on some campuses, they don't properly fix the www vs non-www issue.

You may want to try a Mac site. This is primarily a PC forum and we don't really have many Mac experts here.
