Maybe something's wrong with your network settings. I'm getting your page just fine, it's loading without a problem in netscape and lynx. Try actually typing it with localhost and tell us what that gets you. I'm probably not the best person to help, but I'll try...wanna send in the results of an ifconfig -a and a netstat -r also?
