Problem connecting to www.unix.com

I've been having a problem connecting to the forum. I know it is just something with my computer but I have no idea what it is. It started last week.

Every time I connect I get this:

I had someone else try it and they had no problem. Then I also came in via a link to The UNIX and Linux Forums - the Top UNIX & Linux Q&A on the Web and
there is no problem with that. From there, I can go into the different forums fine (but they weren't all working initially). Still, I cannot go to www.unix.com
without getting the above.

Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? That is how the forum came up after refreshing following a post and, ever since then, that is what I always get.

UML_SWITCH(1)                                                 General Commands Manual                                                UML_SWITCH(1)

NAME

       uml_switch -- switch daemon for user-mode Linux

SYNOPSIS

       uml_switch [-unix control_socket data_socket]  [-hub]  [-tap tun device]  [-compat-v0]  [-daemon]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the uml_switch program.

       This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       uml_switch is a daemon for managing a virtual network between user-mode Linux systems, with no connection to the host system's network.

       It will listen for connections on a pair of UNIX domain sockets, and forward packets between clients which connect to them.

OPTIONS

       -unix control_socket data_socket
                 Listen on the specified pair of sockets, instead of the defaults.

       -hub      Act  like  a hub.  This means that packets received will be broadcast over all virtual links.  The default is to act as a switch,
                 where packets are only sent to the link matching the destination MAC address of the packet.

       -tap tap device
                 Connect the switch to a dynamically created tap device on the host

       -compat-v0
                 Specify control protocol version 0 compatibility.

       -daemon   Run in the background as a daemon.
