However second option can pinpoint the error because I am able to visit the site using german proxy.

Try these steps -

1. Boot your Win 7 Pc to Safe mode with Networking.
2. Open IE and then go to IN-PRIVATE Browsing.

Also, try clean boot. Some third party software might be blocking access to the site.

Report back to us.

Try this - If you connect to internet using a Wi-Fi router, then login to your router's page. Check DNS Page and change the DNS IP Address to OpenDNS.

IP address:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Then restart your router and reconnect using Wi Fi.

@msn: But my other two machines are connecting using the same wi-fi router. I am not willing to change any setting in the router until it is a life-and-death matter because most of my father's work is online and I don't want to be responsible for any screw-ups.

Are you able to browse the same Educational Website using other computers which connects to the same router ?

You may refer to this guide

Yes. MacBook (Mac OS and Windows XP) and Dell Vostro (Windows 7) can connect to the website using the same router.

How to ping? Also, my McAfee needs to be renewed for a long time now. Do you think that a virus could be at work here?

Clean Boot your Laptop. Follow this article from Microsoft.

Once restarted, follow this to reset your host file back to default.

If Clean boot works, then it could be your McAfee thats causing the issue. Uninstall it.

Safari (the browser you use) is trying to connect from your PC. Screenshot clearly tells that it has blocked the IP Address - 31.170.162.143.

I have checked and its the same IP which resolves to your website educomm.net63.net

I am 100% sure that McAfee is blocking you to reach the website. Uninstall McAfee or add an exception in ALLOW LIST of McAfee so that it does not block your IP.

You can click on 'More' in the same screen to see the options available.
