Dropbox website won't open

I have a problem with access to site dropbox.com. Site not opening.

Ping is working normally:

    Hey there Dmitry Belkin - sorry to hear about this.

     

    Have you tried clearing your browser's cache and/or using another browser since you first noticed this?

     

    If you did and this persists, please send us a screenshot of the exact error you're getting, so that we can have a look too.

     

    Thanks!

        Thanks for the screenshot Dmitry Belkin 

         

        In that case, can you reboot your computer and internet router and let me know how it goes?

         

        If you have a security program running as well, you can temporarily disable it as a test too.

         

        When it comes to the desktop app, can you send me another screenshot of the app's exact status and version as shown in your system tray/menu bar
