But I installed avast after the problem started, because I thought it might be a virus, so that doesn't make much sense.ĮDIT 2: added contents of /etc/hosts below # Oct 18 21:46:38 albatross .501 (): Throttling respawn: Will start in 5 seconds Oct 18 21:46:27 albatross avast!: event_master_disconnected : 18 Oct 21:46:24 ntpdate: no servers can be used, exiting Oct 18 21:45:20 albatross : Unexpected AV CHECKURL response code (501)!

I've taken a look at /etc/hosts, and that looks fine. I think that it messed with one of the config files to block the Lubuntu site. It is mainly used for blocking unwanted peers when downloading torrents. I installed (and quickly uninstalled) a program called PeerGuardian, which blocks "suspicious" IPs. My IP is likely not banned, since (1) there is no reason to ban me and (2) my other laptop is able to access the site over the same network, going through the same router. I cannot access the site even if I paste its IP into the address bar. I never use Safari, so it's not an extension issue, either. The problem occurs using three different browsers - Chrome, Firefox, Safari. The site resolves to an IP (thus not a DNS issue). Also the site is up, and this issue is persistent for several days. I can access from my other laptop which is on the same wifi, meaning it's not a network, ISP, or router issue. I can access almost any other site from my macbook (for example this one). I have an idea as to what the problem is (see my opinion), but I did all the usual things anyway (see basic troubleshooting), just to check. I cannot access from my Macbook Pro running OS X 10.6.8.
