Well, I recently bought a domain,. Ive set up the nameservers and other people said they can see it, but i cant. Ive flushed my DNS several times yet it still doesnt work.

+rep.

EDIT: If I use a proxy, i can view the site.

oh, just saw your edit, yeah proxys update faster then your net just wait for a while it should show.

(Not a bad scooter crans)

What browser are you using? My IE doesn't automatically update so I have to use FireFox. Domains usually take around 24 hours to fully set up (well, this was a few years ago, i don't know if speeds have updated). I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the hosting and DNS, just flick back tomorrow and see if it's working.

Sometimes your server can block your machine. In this case you need to contact your host asking them to allow your IP through their servers. May I ask what host you use?

Well, the DNS had 24 hrs last night, and it's still not working for me, but still working for others.

I'm sure that only lasts for a few minutes, I get it all the time when I keep reloading my pages to check if somthings worked or not.

It is still a possibility. I had the exact same problem, sometimes I could view my site others I was blocked :) Really annoying.

Stange, if you have not already try this:

Start Menu
All Programs
Accessories
Command Promt
Type: config/flushdns
Delete all internet cookies, history, everything.
Restart PC.
Try then.

Do not visit any websites after you done the command promt until you have restart.

Make sure you delete all history ect aswell. Follow my step by step instructions. Hopefully it should work.

Did your steps. Didnt work.
Lilian

I am not sure what else to suggest. I can only think it is your host.
