DNS 'block' on website

I have a Macbook Pro running the latest version of Lion.
I've been developing a website using MAMP Pro using a development domain.
A few days ago I uploaded the website to the live server, since then I've not been able to access the domain from the Macbook Pro. the website concerned is live and aceesible from all other devices so I know it's an issue with the MBP.
I've deleted the custom MAMP Dev domain as I thought that could be causing a conflict, I've also cleard the DNS cache but I still can't access the website.
Is there anything else anyone can suggest I do?

This sounds very similar to a post from yesterday where someone could not access servers from only a Mac but could from all other devices.
I searched for it but could not find it. Linc also replied to that thread so maybe he can find a link to it.
Found it.

    Please help.

    This model must use exact url blocking in which case blocking Facebook can't reliably be done.
    If you had a dns server you could specify a bogus ip address for Facebook on your network.
    I had to move to the AE series routers because the parental control is the best and blocking Facebook was easy with only "facebook.com" as the url.

  • I would like to know how to block a website on all of Firefox, without using parental controls.

    I remember some kind of control or perhaps an add on being advertized for one of the recent beta versions of Firefox 4.0 about blocking particular websites from all viewing on Firefox, not just as a parental control. The add-ons I saw are not for 4.0 Beta 12, the version I'm on now. Can anyone steer me to this feature, if it exists? Thank you!

    Possibly BlockSite - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/blocksite
    This one does not work on Firefox 4 but the developer is working on a new version.
    You could use the Windows HOSTS file to block sites - http://allthingsmarked.com/2006/08/28/howto-block-websites-using-the-hosts-file

  • How do I block a website?

    I have an addiction to some forums and social networking sites.. I've tried removing them from all my favorites to deter me from visiting them, but I find myself just typing out the web addresses. It's that bad. How can I block these sites completely from my usage?

    Although a browser is probably not the right tool to block websites, there are some add-ons that might help: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=block+websites
    Other more advanced options: Configure your router to block some websites; use website filtering software; edit the hosts file of your OS to block sites; use services such as OpenDNS or other filtering services, perhaps even Torproject with Torbutton for Firefox etc. etc. Research carefully before deciding.

    But it might not be updated in a timely manner for the Aurora channel ''(which you're on with 9.0a2)'' and it might be disabled after a version update in the future, although the 9.0 version is now set for compatibility.

  • I want to block certain websites

    While I am having problems with facebook and loads of unwanted ads, is there any way I can permanently block certain websites or ads from Firefox?

    Having a '''hosts''' file on Windows systems, and in Firefox use of the '''Adblock Plus''' extension with subscriptions are two major methods of blocking sites and/or files. With Adblock Plus you can block advertisements without blocking the site itself.
