I've never experienced writer's block in the traditional sense but it is a very personal thing so I can't speak for everyone but I think writer's block can be seen as several things. Lack of ideas; lack of energy to write; or sitting in front of the computer not being able to continue with your story.
Lack of ideas: I'd say take a break and fill your creative well. Watch TV, read all different types of books, read the newspaper. Eventually, ideas will come.
Lack of energy to write: if this is the case time for a day off.
Not being able to write even though you have an idea that you've started: maybe something isn't working and you need to revisit your plan.
