All users cant get to some webpages

hi experts I have a strange problem where some websites are showing "page cant be displayed" in IE or "not available ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT" in Chrome. I have a sonicwall with content filtering and have added these pages to the whitelist to test. There is no sonicwall block page. Also we have ESET with web protection that I have temporarily disabled but still cannot get to these sites.

I have tested these sites on an outside line and mobile devices and they are fine. How can I go about troubleshooting an issue like this? I can ping google.com by name and one example site is workerscompindiana.com and I get replies from any workstation... but http://www.workerscompindiana.com/ does not display in browsers. No proxy set in the browsers.

please advise,
thanks

it seems like some kind of filter is in the middle.

are you able to try "TELNET www.workerscompindiana.com 80" from command prompt on an internal computer?

thats exactly what I thought. I have eset with some kind of web security feature but I disabled it. I have a sonicwall with content filtering but white listed the site. I can ping it but when I tried to telnet it didnt work as pasted below. Im out of ideas. There has to be a way to trace or sniff to see whats going on.

C:\Windows\system32>TELNET www.workerscompindiana.com 80
Connecting To www.workerscompindiana.com...Could not open connection to the hos
, on port 80: Connect failed

C:\Windows\system32>ping www.workerscompindiana.com

per sonicwall this was a known issue and updating the firmware fixed the problem.
