Cannot access a certain web site. How to determine if the problem is in the computer of if the web site is not working?
My computer is a HP z230 workstation running Windows 7 pro.
Each time I try to read the www.windowssecrets.com web site, my browser (Firefox v58.0.2) tells me it cannot connect to this web site. I have tried connecting using my other Windows computers and none of them will connect to this web site.
When you cannot connect to a certain web site, how do you determine whether the problem is in the web site or in your computer or some place else?
What software or tools do you use?
Please give me detailed answers. I am not a network expert.

please have a look here: What happened to Windows Secrets?
https://www.askwoody.com/2018/what-happened-to-windows-secrets/
From your link...
How was that supposed to help? LOL
Edit: I just saw further down in comments that they've now realised what the problem was at the above link too. Just struck me as hilarious when I clicked the link and found that all "Woody" had to say was
"I haven't a clue" Hahaha Good old Woody :-)
