try doing a ping to the site.
to do this, follow these steps:
1. click on the start logo thingy on the bottom left
2. if you have vista, click on the little text box in the start menu if you have xp, clock on run
3. type cmd and hit enter (do this on both xp and vista)
a black command prompt screen will come up
4. type in the following line without quotes "ping www.blackberryforums.com"
see if you get a bunch of numbers. if you do, there is something messed up with the browser. if it says "request timed out" or anything similar, than there is an issue with your internet connecting to that particular site (which is very weird)
