Its an ISP problem. I used to face this with VSNL for some other sites. The sites did open through a web-proxy but not directly.

In the zone
Clear your browser's cache totally (passwords, history, etc) and then try to open orkut. You said it tells you to download a file called "ORKUT.COM".. tht means your browser faces a problem displaying a site. Always keep 2-3 browsers installed and check in each one of them.

Try to ping the site go to run->cmd-> ping www.google.com
Try to clear ur browser temporary file, history and and cookies.
Try to flush the dns cache go to run->cmd->ipconfig /flushdns

use opendns server primary 208.67.222.222 secondary 208.67.220.220
How to set dns server in windows xp refer to this

Banned today? Why so late? He probably disappeared off after his prob got solved and probably wont come back until the next one pops up.
