 plencnerbPremium join:2000-09-25 Elgin, IL kudos:2 | Opened up a new tab, and put in
http://www.msn.com
and it opened without any problems (see picture).
By the way, added the code tag to show exactly what I typed into my browser window, just in case there was some question. I'm using Waterfox Version 18.0.1
Have you checked your hosts files for changes?

 | Looks like it must have been a DNS issue. It is back to normal now. |

 Jer03 join:2006-08-16 Las Cruces, NM | Re: msn.com I am having the same problem with MSN.com with Bing giving me only a blank page on www.msn.com. No other site is affected, and it is happening only on . I have W 7 and FF 18. I returned to V 18 from 19 as I thought it might solve the problem, but no change.
Thanks, Jerry |

 plencnerbPremium join:2000-09-25 Elgin, IL kudos:2 | reply to jack s Ok I did a little investigation here. Not sure if it means anything or not, but I did want to point out what I noticed.
I got thinking if maybe something is not right as far as the difference between the following two url's
URL #1: http://www.msn.com
URL #2: msn.com
I did both a nslookup and a ping to both. Its interesting that both return a different IP back. Ping's don't resolve, but I don't think that means a whole lot, as I can get to the page just fine.
nslookup msn.com
Server: pfsense.localdomain
Address: 192.168.1.1
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: msn.com
Address: 65.55.206.228
nslookup www.msn.com
Server: pfsense.localdomain
Address: 192.168.1.1
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: us.co1.cb3.glbdns.microsoft.com
Address: 131.253.34.194
Aliases: www.msn.com
ping msn.com
Pinging msn.com [65.55.206.228] with 32 bytes of data:

Pinging us.co1.cb3.glbdns.microsoft.com [131.253.34.194] with 32 bytes of data:

So, take that for what its worth.
What prompted me to investigate this was the thread about some people not being able to get to
navy.mil
but they could get to
http://www.navy.mil
due to the fact there are no A records for the first. You can get there to the first one, if your browser appends the www. in front of it first.
The tread that I'm talking about is below
»[DNS] Can Comcast customers get to navy.mil?
Again, not sure if this is the same issue or not, but I did want to point this out in case it could help shed some light on the issues that people are having.
