Cant connect to www.torrentz.com with my firefox browser, tried with add ons disabled and in safe mode, also tried to connect via IE but wasnt able to connect, below is the message i keep getting , i have been on the Mozilla website and been through the suggested actions ie clear cache etc etc, but still not able to connect , any suggestions? oh and did the DNS thing but to no avail,changed the IPv6 settings and the page appeared but after about 15seconds it locked me out again with that same message ive been getting.


Unable to connect








Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.torrentz.com. 





   *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
         moments.

   *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
         connection.

   *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
         that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

If you cannot connect from any browser to that one website, your issue may be caused by Malware. You can run and update the following free anti virus software:

1. Malwarebytes (Free version) - http://www.malwarebytes.org

2. Spybot Search & Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org

3.Spyware Terminator - http://www.spywareterminator.com

In addition, there are a number of forums you can use to help get rid of your infection. These include:

In that case you likely have Malwarebytes' so you need to add the IP address for the www.torrentz.com which is "109.235.49.40" to the (ignore list) in Malewarebytes', to do that type www.torrentz.com on your browser then press enter then you will likely find that there is a message from Malewarebytes' saying "Successfully blocked access to a potentially malicious website: 109.235.49.40" then you need to right click on Malewarebytes' on system tray then select "add to ignore list" then you will be prompted automatically by this IP "109.235.49.40" just select it then try to open torrentz.com now, I think it will work.
