More likely an error on opendns.com - you are not going via a proxy to here.

its relatively known that opendns proxy google requests and no doubt other sites to "protect the user" (assuming you're using opendns :p:)

Could be an issue with the proxy detection on whatever these sites are.

Go to www.whatismyip.com and see what that provides, if it's your own IP address there's no proxy in use.

or use the 'connection' link in the top toolbar, above ^

which reports

Code:


Connection Information
You appear to be on a Virgin Media Connection
Your IP address is        82.xx.xx.x
Host        cpc3-grim1-0-0-custxxx.nott.cable.ntl.com
Your Proxy IP address is        195.188.152.12
This is a Virgin Media Proxy Server

when I go via the virgin webcache server
