IE/Mozilla connectivity problems.
Hello.
This is a problem I've had for some time, but hasn't really bothered me until now. Recently, more and more internet pages are unreachable, in IE and Mozilla.
I open up Firefox and try entering for instance, www.battlet.net, www.filmweb.no, wow-europe.com, lol-europe.com, and i cannot open the sites. I've tried using my laptop on the same network, works just fine, so it's just this PC. I checked my hosts file
to see if that could be it, but it's clean as a whistle.I tried pinging battle.net but that didn't work, so clearly something is blocking these sites. I'm running AVG Free atm, Peerblock, Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware and SpyBot S&D, donefull scans but can't
seems to come up with anything.
Anybody who might know what is wrong here?

In the system tray/notification area, right click the PeerBlock Icon (blue cube) and click "disable" and try the sites in question. Don't forget to enable PeerBlock afterwards. If the disable allows the sites, then the sites are in whatever block
lists you are using with PeerBlock. They tend to err on the side of caution.

Thank you.
This solved my problem, greatly appreciated. I thought i checked the blocked ip list already, but it must have happened somewhere after installed it, i feel kind of silly.
