I can go to forums.worldofwarcraft.com, battle.net, and anything else except www.worldofwarcraft.com. I use chrome but have used Internet explorer and Mozilla to test and I get same results.

Sorry, [Chrome] could not connect to worldofwarcraft.com. Please try a Cached page or press refresh to try again.

- Go to Start/Programs/Accessories and locate the "Command Prompt" shortcut.
- Right click Command Prompt shortcut and select "Run as Administrator" from the drop down menu.

- Go to Start then Run and type the word "cmd" (without quotation marks) in the Run box. A DOS window should open on screen.

- Wait a few seconds for a reply that the IP address has been released.
- Type: "ipconfig /renew" (without quotation marks) in the DOS window.

- Type: "ipconfig /flushdns" (without quotation marks) in the DOS window.
