Virus the Reason why I can't play a Game?

Denzryn · Nov 18, 2008

Hi i was told to move my topic to here..

I'm currently play a game called www.Habbo.com and recently my parents blocked the game with Netgear Firewall.

I decided to go on a proxy site called www.vtunnel.com so I can still play the game even though it was blocked.

A couple days later, when my parents finally unblocked the game, I found that whenever I typed in the game address WITHOUT USING THE PROXY it would say "Page Can Not Be Found".

This also occured with my brother who used the same exact proxy site.

We use Internet Explorer 6 and I was wondering if the proxy site was the cause of why I can't play the game? And is there anyway to fix it? I already ran Spypot and Anti-Virus scans and it didn't fix the problem.

I don't know why I can't just go to the website anymore after I stop using the proxy site

Hi

Not initally thinking of malware being the cause, so first off delete all temps and cookies, CCleaner [/URL ]can help with this, dont change its settings from default, run the Cleaner and then the registry one a few times.

What Windows version do you have?

Maybe also case you need to delete the DNScache on the operating system too, can help in these cases, to do this and instructions are aimed for Windows XP (but works in others) click Start > Run and type cmd and hit enter, then type ipconfig /flushdns
