strange wordpress problem

I can access my Freehostia Wordpress from all but one of my computers/tablet .
It seems to be system wide. I've rebooted the affected host and reset my router etc...
This is, well 'quite odd' Any ideas ?

Code:

$ curl -v http://hwhap.com/wordpress/wp-login.php
* About to connect() to hwhap.com port 80 (#0)
*   Trying 66.40.52.71...

(hangs)

$ netstat|grep hwhap
tcp4       0      0  192.168.1.67.61039     hwhap.com.http         SYN_SENT

Hello,

It appears that there is some old DNS cache on that computer as the host resolves to an IP address in the previous data center. The new IP address, which the domain name is assigned is:

hwhap.com has address 198.23.57.74

Please try to clear your computer DNS cache and check this again from your end:

Aha thank you ! It turns out that I had put an entry in the hosts table to the old address.
Mystery solved
