My ISP can't seem to see maxima.org, help

I haven't been able to get on maxima.org for two months now at home. My ISP simply doesn't see maxima.org, all other sites work fine. Is there a way I can get around my ISP and get back on here?

At my brothers house now, fixing to head home so if anyone has any ideas, e-mail me at scott@scottwax.com so I can start participating here again.

Your ISP DNS might be going bad which is usual, you should use Open DNS IPs ( 208.67.222.222) (208.67.220.220)

Below are instructions on how to change it.

Sometimes just clearing the browser history gets you up and running again.
Don't overlook the simple stuff.

Run CCleaner regularly, my son can't get to it either on his computer. Going to have to use a different DNS server to access the site, apparently google has open DNS servers that can be used.
