server cannot be found

I'm trying to connect to a website. Told server cannot be found. Told "to check If you are connected but behind a firewall, check that Firefox has permission to access the Web." How do I check this?


I'm using a Macbook Air

This is very unlikely to be a firewall problem. Moreover, if you're able to access other websites with Firefox, then you know Firefox has permission to access the Web. It's more likely to be a temporary problem with the website itself, or perhaps you've mistyped the domain name. You could also try it in another browser like Safari.
