Can you deal with my noob-ness?

I have just started using DriverCleaner.NET and am having a couple of issues.

I am unable to reach any of your servers from my home PC (I am writing this from work) such as drivercleaner.net or driverheaven.net, or the best part, the LiveUpdate server. I think there must be something about Vista that is automatically blocking access to your site that I can't figure out. I was able to reach the site on Monday when I made my online purchase, but as soon as the payment processing was done, I was unable to reach your site to download the application. I have downloaded it from my work PC and copied it for home, but my problem now is that LiveUpdate doesn't work because it can't reach your servers? Any ideas.
As you now from my first problem, I am running Vista. When I run CABCleaner, it doesn't find any files to clean. Is this to be expected?

Thank you.

1. Do you have any firewall or internet security software running or any other thing that is running in the background that could block the access? Drivercleaner.net, driverheaven.net and Live Update are on the same server so that you can't reach any of them means there is something on your pc blocking it.

2. Yes this is normal. The cab files are not used anymore in Vista. They use now a directory with the files in it. The file search in driver cleaner will cover that directory.
