OK on to my problem. I can-not connect to the Driver.soft website to Driver_Genius.
I Have tried Running CCleaner, Mbam, Connectivity Fixer PRO didn't fix it. I have booted up in to my other hard drive which has windows 8 64bit on there had to do some updates to ad-ware antivirus pro to get 11 updated haven't been on win 8 at all long time lol. Then i opened up firefox checked driver_soft site and worked fine. Then tried it on my phone to worked fine. Both running off the same internet router, using my friends wireless router tho but all same hook in to wall on same internet.

Need some help please can't figure this one out Thank u Thank u

Have you tried flushing your DNS cache?
  1. Hold down the Windows key and press R. (This will open the Run dialogue.)
  2. Type cmd and press Enter. (This will open a command prompt.)
  3. Type ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.
  4. Type ipconfig /registerdns and press Enter.
  5. Type ipconfig /release and press Enter.
  6. Type ipconfig /renew and press Enter.
  7. Type netsh winsock reset and press Enter.
  8. Reboot the computer.

Hello,

Try these.

1. Try to access the site through its direct IP.
http://67.228.169.248

2. Try Google's DNS servers and follow the steps given by Cain once more then try access the website.
How-to Guide

3. Make sure your Firefox settings look like this.

4. Make sure one of your Firefox Add-ons isn't causing the issue.
Try this.

5. Open up a Command Prompt (CMD) and type "tracert www.driver-soft.com" without quotes. Any errors in the trace route?
Example

Report back if any of the steps helped resolve your issue. :)
