If you can't ping that address, look for a traceroute tool somewhere, or use the cmd version of it, tracert.

Yea, I tried that and it just times out. The weird thing is that it was working fine until my internet service went down a few days ago. When it went down the Google main page would load but of course the search function as well as other websites would not work. I managed to fix it (network DNS error) but Google seemed to get "black-holed" in the process. I now use the built in search function on Mozilla, which seems to work better than msn, but not as good as Google. I just don't know
