195.37.239.143:6664 is the IP/Port combination which is hidden behind
the name "www.simmonsmuseum.com". The portnumber 6664 is not the
standard webserver port (which is normally port 80) so in certain
cases e.g. company firewalls or proxies reject webserver responses
which do not use the standard port. If you have access to your
firewall settings (should be the case if you are talking about your
private internet account, but in this case standard firewall settings
would not block this port), open port 6664, if not: You are trapped ;-)
Sorry, but at the moment I don't have any other chance to host this
site for a reasonable price and as you can imagine I am not a
"professional Simmons data dealer"
I am working on a solution
Bye
