What is the full error message you are being given when you try to access the site? Paste it here.

This is the message
Server Not Found
firefox can't find the server at www.army.mil
check the address for typing errors such as ww.exmple.com instead of www.example.com
if you are unable to load pages, check your computer network conection
if your computer or network is protected by a firewall ot proxy, make sure theat firefox is permited to access the web.
try again

Might be a DNS problem with your ISP, as I can open the site in Firefox. Try changing your DNS servers to these :-
http://www.opendns.com/
You have to register, but it's all free and you can change back to your ISP's DNS servers at anytime.

It could always be that the site was down for a bit, or some router along the way was buggered up.

I tried http://www.army.mil just now and I found it very, very slow. It's entirely possibly that the problem is on their end and not yours.
Also,
I do hope that Gwendolyn Star is the name of your GW character, otherwise you should edit your post before it comes back to haunt your wife's career.

However, the OP's character name is in the OP's profile box

Really? The US Military still discriminates?
Wow. I'm ...speechless.

It's quite ironic how our current leaders claim to be the vanguard of freedom in the world, and yet they push for the same sort of "morality enforcement" found in Iran.
Anywho, the point is moot since Gwendolyn is apparently a character name only, so SNIEVES's wife's career is safe.

Yeah, apologies for the thread hijack, SNIEVES
