Just recently on my sons computer he cannot access any Google sites from his computer. No other computers in the house are having this issue. I've flushed the DNS cleared cache and cookies I've even uninstalled the browser (Chrome). This happens no matter what browser I try. Last time this happened I wound up resetting the whole computer to day 1, I'd rather not do that again if at all possible. Anyone else experience this problem. Google sites are the only sites affected I can browse to any other site with no issues.
Thanks

Someone may have edited your Hosts file. Here's how to check that:

I added the following line to the host file but still cannot access the site. Any other suggestions?
216.58.216.100 www.google.com

You need to clear the Hosts file, let the DNS services decide what IP to use.
What message do you get when you try to go to Google.com?

This problem must be with the browser. Please change the browser to check if the websites are working or not.
