Internet problem,please help!

Hello,I reinstalled my Windows and now I'm with Vista x64 (I was with XP x86 before).My internet works fine (as you can see ),but I have one problem.I cannot open 2 internet sites.Only 2,but really important for me.The sites are working,I'm not banned or something,just when I type the address and hit "Enter" it starts loading and then I get this "The connection has timed out".I'm using Mozilla Firefox,but the same thing happens with IE.What can it be?What can be causing this?It's really bad,because if I don't get it fixed somehow I have to go back to XP So,please if you can help me I'll really apreceate it.Thanks.
