I'm watching this with some interest. I don't have any advice to offer right now but I have been suffering the same problem with one particular site for some time now.
Again, when the site times out I can still ping and traceroute but can't get http access. It's definitely not a DNS issue as the name still resolves.
This clears itself normally after a few minutes although on a couple of occasions the time-out has lasted as long as 20 minutes.
