What does "can't access the website" mean?
In order to help, we need more info. (Kind of like telling a doctor "I don't feel good")

When I type in the address I get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage.
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

More information

This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Internet connectivity has been lost.
The website is temporarily unavailable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click Tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

For offline users

You can still view subscribed feeds and some recently viewed webpages.
To view subscribed feeds

Click the Favorites Center button , click Feeds, and then click the feed you want to view.

To view recently visited webpages (might not work on all pages)

Click Tools , and then click Work Offline.
Click the Favorites Center button , click History, and then click the page you want to view.

So does that help?

We would need a screen shot or more information for further insight.

But it kinda seems like to me its a DNS issuse..

Try this:

Click start
Click run
type: cmd

this will bring up the command prompt.
In the command prompt type:

Ipconfig /flushdns

Then enter it and try the website again.

Let me know if that worked.
