      I've not been able to log onto the site through my windows computer for a long time.

      Can log on through my iPad but the computer has e IP got changed page.

      I've rebooted my machine and also waited until the DNS changes apply…. I'm still waiting.

      Is there a simple fix for this?

        possibility is that you've modified your "hosts"  entries from times were we had DNS issues and it was a quick fix. It was the case on one of my PCs.

        To correct that with Windows Vista and 7:
        1/ In the Start menu select Accessories > right click on Notepad and select to start as administrator
        2/ In the Notepad select File > Open > navigate to C:/ > Windows > System32 > drivers > etc
        3/ Select in Notepad to show all files bottom right instead .txt files only, open the hosts file you'll see

        If you see entries for gaytorrent.ru and gtru.net, just put an # sign in front of them or delete those line.

        Save the file, which will only possible if you opened notepad with right mouse click as administrator as said upstairs.

        ATTENTION: Do NOT touch any other entries, wrong manipulation may result in loosing internet navigation.


        For Mac users, in the Terminal type:

        sudo nano /private/etc/hosts

        Then use the editor "nano" to change that file.
