I'll take a peek at what you posted and I'll find some solutions for ya! Gimme a couple moments though.

Take your time. If I get the same problem tonight - I'll come back tomorrow morning

It's because you're on "the list."

Which DNSs are these? and why would I change it to something different than what my ISP sets? I am able to access any other site at the same time...

That is OPEN DNS's servers, and you would change it because they are likely to be quicker and more reliable then your ISP's, and it would help troubleshoot this problem.

OK, first time I hear about OPEN DNS, I'll give it a try.

I had to use Open DNS because only about 50% of websites would work with time warmer. They claimed their DNS servers were fine, but obviously they weren't.

I <3 open dns. they have a pretty good set of tools if you sign up for an account on their website too. Cox dns blows

Cox's DNS was out for 72 hours and they had no idea they were even having problems. Even told third-tier that if they had customers switch their DNS settings to OpenDNS, they could have a serviceable connection in the interim.

"Uhhh, whuuuut?!"
