Can't access random websites - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

How's it going. I've ran antivirus, spybot, and adaware and am using Windows XP with SP2 and firefox.
Problem is, I can't access some random sites. www.Espn.com will not come up (it times out) as well as some pages for work. These pages all worked in the past, but don't seem to be working now. I'm on a network in my house, the other computers can access these sites.
Any ideas?

What is "peerguardian"? I am having the same similar problems now. I can access sites such as cnn.com, google.com, and obviousley tfproject.org, but i cannot access anything to do with msn, hotmail, vonage, netflix, etc etc... Any sugestions?
