She reports it is happening with both FF and IE, and in her case, simply reports that the ProZ.com server cannot be contacted.
Same here with the DNS provided by my ISP (free.fr).
There are two workarounds.
One can use OpenDNS:

I am currently using them to post this message.
Or one can browse with a proxy. For instance, http://www.free-proxy.fr/ will give a large list of them.

Please note that the refreshing method does not work for me.
I even entered an "alert to Proz staff" on the LinkedIn ProZ.com forum.
Apparently, nobody is listening to us
EDIT : Sorry, I could not see Alejandro's last message when I wrote this post.
So, yes, somebody has heard us. Alleluïa
Thank you for your efforts to fix this problem
Catherine
PS : I do confirm : my tip does work! Because one minute ago, while clicking on the back button, my brother (FF this time) displayed again "cannot find this site". So I went back to the Google page where I entered the request described above, clicked on the link, and you can see me back

Thank you Didier, this was it exactly, my ISP is also free.fr. Thanks for the tip.

I don't think it has to do with the browser, it happens to me with FF and Chrome. It says "Server not found", then I have to go to "Try again" for a couple of times before I reach the home page of the site. It does not happen all the time, though.
Another thing is that I cannot see my photo displayed at some places. I submitted a support question. Strangely enough, they see it everywhere properly displayed:-)
