Considering your site is accessible from any other PC (including mine), you should check for a local cause which would affect all your browser on your Desktop.

See for example "Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can", which lists causes like:

  • Internet Security software blocking Firefox
  • Firefox connection settings
  • IPv6
  • DNS Prefetching
  • Check for malware
  • Check if an extension is causing the problem

Some of those reason could apply to more than one browser and explain why you don't access your site on your desktop.
