Theres a power supply company called Kingston communications and they have been having nationwide outages most of the afternoon/evening. Ive had trouble getting on a number of forums I surf, (they supply the power for them) could it be the same issue?

Have a read.

(I'm hoping that's the site. I can't google it because, well, you know)

Thanks for the information.

How come sometimes when I enter an address wrong or the site is down it goes to an OpenDNS error page. I notice this a lot at work, is it likly my company uses OpenDNS if i does this?

It won't affect this problem and the Be DNS issues have long since been sorted out.

o2 seems to be acting the same way aswell! can access this and bbc, but not google etc.

AFK_Matrix · 9 Aug 2008 at 21:35

Well I am on Virgin Media (for my sins) and I can get up the google page with the logo but it won't search for anything!!!

Also can't get on facebook and a few other places either.

THE END IS NIGH!!!
