site connectability

Hi folks, I've got a problem.
It's not really hardware (I hope) but I would still like to ask you, since it's the only place I know that might be able to help me.

There's this site I'm trying to connect to, but I can't for some dodgy reason. I know the site isn't down because I can reach it from another PC at work.
I've had troubles connecting to this site before, but I was always able to reach it, until last night. I hoped it was just a glitch, but it seems to be persistant.

I've not installed anything prior to this problem.
I've always been able to reach it from my work-pc and I've always had problems connecting to the site from my home-pc.

I can ping the site, and tracert comes back without time-outs.
I've even installed Firefox to see if IE6.0 was the issue, but that didn't resolve it either

My system specs:
Intell Pentium 4 2.66GHz
512 RAM
WinXP Home SP2

HELP! Please.
Thanks in advance

But never mind, it seems to be working again, for whatever reason.
Thanks anyway.

It happens with the Phoenix RPG site as well ( http://www.phoenix-rpg.ca ), and I can only conclude that occasionally Shaw's DNS servers don't know how to resolve the site,
