Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - ping could not find host of exactly *one* page

Hello,

It seems I somehow managed to mess up something, because all of a sudden there is exactly *one* address -- namely mail.google.com -- that I can neither load nor ping.

I can't remember having done or changed anything that might have caused this -- in fact I was writing an email when the site suddenly stopped responding. Ever since I can't load the page with any browser, and I can't ping it from the commandline. I've tried some things, for example ipconfig /flushdns, but the problem persists.

I *can* load the page from other computers in the same network, so it's not an issue of the ISP or the site itself (I guess).

Any ideas?

Thanks!
