I have a problem connecting to USPS at usps.com |
|
I've tried usps.gov and tried using the ip address.
Anyone else had the same problem and found a solution?
At this point www.usps.com is the only website I cannot access.

Are you sure you aren't infected with malware? Which browser(s) are you using? Try deleting all browser temp files and history, close all windows, launch a new one and try again.

6. Have you checked your HOST file? |

G:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
Do you have more than one browser and do both act the same?

Open a command prompt (Start, "Run...", type: "cmd.exe" <enter> )
at the prompt type:
NSLOOKUP www.usps.com
it should return something like this...
Non-authoritative answer: Name: e2361.b.akamaiedge.net Address: 96.6.201.188 Aliases: www.usps.com, www.usps.com.edgekey.net
if not, it is a hosts file or DNS problem.
