Weird Internet Issue

I really hope this is the right place to post this, I'm desperate in finding an answer to this problem so here it goes.

There is a forum I've been going too for many many years and every time I try going to the website on Firefox AND IE I get an error. It says,

"PAGE LOAD ERROR" then

Network Timeout

and says the site name and said it took to long to display. I'm not banned or anything, I know that, and the site works for everyone else but will NOT work for me on this computer. Every other site I go to works, for some reason this is the only website that I'm having problems with. I've ran mutiple virus scanners, came up with no problems at all, so how come I can't get on this site? It works on my laptop but not my main computer.

I've rebooted my computer multiple times, I cleared the cache, cleared the cookies, temp internet files, nothing worked. I recently installed McAfee and I thought maybe that was the problem, so I uninstalled that, only to get a new error that says;

"Connection Interrupted


The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.


The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again."


I'm really lost at this point, I don't think it was a virus or anything, the site is a safe site that I've been visiting for 6 years now, why is this the ONLY site out of hundreds I visit that does not work?

If anyone can help me, I would be forever grateful.

EDIT:

I just tried going to their main site, not the forum and I get the same error message there as well.

Re: Weird Internet Issue

Delete temporary internet files (cache) cookies etc and try again. Also have you tried going to this site on another computer? If you can access it from another computer and you have deleted the cache then try editing the Hosts file.
Browse to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\ETC. Open the Hosts File with Notepad. Delete every line after this Example:
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
