Cannot access bbc.co.uk website?

All of a sudden, three days ago bbc.co.uk/radio7 didn't allow me to listen to any content, saying it could not be loaded. Now I cannot access the website at all, or any bbc.co.uk website. Internet Explorer either says it cannot display the page, or the 'connecting' icon spins and nothing comes up at all. Nothing has changed on my computer in this time.

I can't even get to the main website to look at help topics or anything to see what my problem might be. I am in the US, but I have never had this problem before in 5 years of using BBC.

Update:

My roommate can access the website from her computer.

Update 2:

Proxy sites work. Now when I try to use the bbc iplayer to listen to content it tells me to enable Javascript, which I checked and it is already enabled. Stupid computer.

Update 3:

I can load and use the site now. Again, nothing changed on my computer. That was weird.
