Try this on the affected PC Steve (assuming it's running Windows):

Open up a Command Prompt Window.
Type in ipconfig /flushdns   (There's a space after ipconfig)
Press enter
If successful, Command Prompt should report:  "Successfully flushed the 
DNS Resolver Cache"
Then type in "exit" to exit Command Prompt.

When your type in the URL for a web site, your PC has to use a server to 
tell it what the IP is for the web site.
These look ups get stored in your PC's DNS cache (so your PC doesn't 
have to look up the IP every single time).
You may have a malicious entry in your DNS cache for ppraa.org  -- this 
will clear it, if that's the case.

BTW ppraa.org works OK on my PC.
