You might want to check your browser settings to make sure that it's not a blocked site. Also trying deleting your temporary internet files and cookies. If that doesn't help, try turning off your firewall temporarily and make sure that Window Firewall is also turned off. An aftermarket firewall and Windows Firewall can sometimes confilict with each other. You can also trying sending a message to your ISP and ask them to investigate the error for you. I am definitely not an IT guy, but those are the first few things that come to mind.

Good luck!

Could it even be the site blocking a range of certain IP addresses. There are a lot of on line classifieds that have been spammed with scammers from certain locations and they (the owners of the site) can have blocks of IP addresses blocked from accessing the site.

I would start with the simple things on your end first. Check your internet tools/options in IE and add the site as a trusted site in the security tab. If windows firewall is enabled, turn it off and load a good firewall like Zone Alarm on the machine.

I assume that the Internet cafe and your laptop are using the same ISP?

If your laptop has a wireless connection try using the repair and it should release and renew your IP. That might fix it.

I tried the site with mozilla and IE here in Canada and it worked fine.
