Recently, I typed in the site address into the web address bar. Yahoo did a search, but did not pull up the site. It then gave me a list of possible sites, one of which was Animation Source. I clicked on it, and the page would simply not open the site, it would just reload the search page. Why does this keep happening? I tried this 3 times on both Google Chrome and Firefox, and once on Internet Explorer, all with the same result. What can be done to fix this, and where are the possible places this problem is coming from?

Try clearing all your cookies and cache. If that doesn't work, then try clearing out your DNS cache. You can do that by going to start>run>cmd. Type in ipconfig /flushdns and press enter.

If none of that works for you, here are a couple more suggestions: Reset your router. All you have to do in unplug it for a minute or so and plug it back in. Another suggestion is to scan for viruses. I would recommend that you do a scan in safe mode. Scanning while the computer is running may not pick up a virus if it indeed is infected. By booting into safe mode, you're only loading what windows needs to be operational. You have a much better chance at catching it since it isn't running in the memory.

To get into safe mode, go to start>run>msconfig>boot. Tick safe mode box. Just be sure to undo the step while you're in safe mode, or your computer will stya in safe mode xD
