    I was able to load that URL just fine right now. Have you tried using different DNS servers? I don't use Cox DNS.

    Is this a website you work for? Do you VPN into them? If no, try deleting your DNS cache with your VPN disconnected. 

    Windows Key + R > CMD > IPconfig \flushdns . Want to know more?

    Hi Ccline69,

    I had no problems accessing the website, either. Have you tried clearing your browser history, cookies, and temp files?
