What would be causing my IP from, well blocking my system, I don't have a router up so I really can't do any DNS tweaking, nor do I have an MTU tweaks going on.
My firewall and AV are off so no conflicts there. Any ideas from other geeks?

Question for you techies....
I'd like to think I'm pretty knowledgeable with computers, not as some, but above average at least. The other day one of my rainmeter plugins messed up, or I thought it did. Then when I went to the website that it links to (ventrilo.com) it came up as a time out error. So I was like ok Ventrilo's website is down. Waited a day same thing. Then decided to go through both a VPN and a proxy, and what do you know Ventrilo came up.

?
apart from that, i have no idea whatsoever...
Sounds like it has something to do with rainmeter maybe. Just my way of thinking.
ReplyDelete@Richie - Yea I tried that, it was just me lol
ReplyDelete@Rezden - Right now I have that funstion of rainmeter off. But when it was on it showed up just fine under the VPN.
uhm no ideas bout sry
ReplyDeleteJust try an reset your router/modem, tends to happen to certain websites all the time depending on traffic, and usage.
ReplyDelete@Shugo, that was one of my first things I did.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure, but just don't go to Geek Squad
ReplyDeleteI only go to the Geek Squad counter to tell people what their problems are with the system and how to fix it themselves....I've gotten kicked out of BB's for doing that lol.
ReplyDeleteIm not sure dude, never messed with rainmeter before (I kinda want to though, Ive seen some pretty awesome designs for desktops) I hope you find the solution soon.
ReplyDeleteUmmm reinstall Rainmeter plugin? :D
ReplyDelete@River - I don't think it's rainmeter issue, it can't be since all it does is pull the server status from ventrilo.com and post it to my desktop.
ReplyDelete@Savage - Actually when this problem first started, I decided to do a fresh install of W7, and I tried before I reinstalled rainmeter.
Remember people it works with a VPN! when I set my system up to go through the VPN, the rainmeter plugin works perfectly.
I am sorry, but I lack the knowledge to help you...
ReplyDeleteHave you tried the reset button? Haha
ReplyDeletesounds like it's on ventrilo's end.
ReplyDeletere-install windows! or get linux.
ReplyDeleteDo not delete system32 and you'll be fine :D
ReplyDeleteSweet gif!
ReplyDeleteWish I could help, hope you figure it out
ReplyDelete@Dan - same issues on my Backtrak Linux Distro
ReplyDelete@Mez - I think that might work let me try i....
this sounds way too complicated for my computer knowledge :( if it's gaming then that's another story 8D sorry Willow.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I can help with that one.
ReplyDeleteclear your cahce, restart your computer, check your host file to see if its blcoking it? thats what id try at least
ReplyDeleteI'm not techy enough to help with this
ReplyDeleteI've never used ventrilo or rainmeter so I'm not exactly sure what could be causing it. My suggestion is check out the rainmeter forums and see if anyone else is having the problem. If not you could email rainmeter/ventrilo staff about it and see what they have to say. Good luck man.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could help
ReplyDeleteIt is not just you. I use the same applet for rainmeter, and it stopped working a few weeks ago (right when yours did). I checked into it, and I can't access the ventrilo site, though I can get on typefrag.com. They have an web applet that pulls the status the same way as the ventrilo one (same people, typefrag owns ventrilo), but I tried inserting that url with no success.
