When trying to access the site www.wrestlezone.com I get the error
Safari can't open the page "http://www.wrestlezone.com/" because the server where the page is located isn't responding
I have tried resetting safai, resetting my router, changing browsers, renewing the DHCP lease. I'm stuck
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2009), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
Try a different DNS server ... I can open that page no problem.
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click Ok.
Quit and relaunch Safari and try that link.
BTW, your profile indicates your Mac has v10.8.2 installed.
If that is the case, updating your system sofware may also help Safari. (Best to keep software update to date, not just for functionality but security).
Click Software Update from your Apple menu or open System Preferences > Software Update and click Check Now.
I tried that, to no avail. It also gives me the same error when trying to access that site from my iphone on Wifi.
Works fine here.
Your not using some sort of nannyware, edited your hosts file, firewall, anti-virus, MacKeeper, OpenDNS or some sort of blocking software?
Paste this into your browser URL field and press enter or click, it should say "up"
If not then perhaps you have a firewall blocker on
It also gives me the same error when trying to access that site from my iphone on Wifi.
Use a different Wifi, it's looking like there is some blocking on the router.
BTW, clear the DNS settings recommended above and reboot the machine, OpenDNS only works right if your IPS server is also in the same major city they have servers, else your downloads can be extremely slow from Apple's content servers and others.
It doesn't say 'up' anywhere, I turned the firewall off and the same problem and i'm not running or have done anything ds store suggested may be the problem.
Did that, still at square one, appreciating the help by the way.

So this is only occuring on that site correct?
Yes its only happening for that site, but, on the face of it's the same error as when I try to access thepiratebay.org which is blocked by the ISP's here in the UK.
Try any of these links
dvdfile does not work, same as wrestlezone, but the other two load fine.
Looks like targeting blocking on the ISP level.
The wrestle site and the DVDfile both host content that perhaps the MIAA/RIAA/someone is requested to be blocked like PirateBay is.
Ok, thanks. I have contacted my ISP and will update if and when there is a resolution.
Restart your router and broadband device (if different) and test.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
In Safe Mode, the problem still persists. My ISP told me its not them doing it.
Double-click the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
www.wrestlezone.com
Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
Step 1
Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
Step 2
Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
Important: Some browsers and mail clients will automatically complete a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.
