Anyone else having issues getting to these well known sites?

All timing out of part loading for some of us. Trying to work out if its a local issue or not.

No problems here.

Thanks for checking. More posts appearing on VM's forums about the issue but they range from Scotland down to the south of England. Mixed between DNS, CDN issues and other titled threads.

Thought about that while I was out shopping. Checked now im home and it does appear to be openDNS related. Switched to openDNS a while back and pages loaded so much faster than using VM's own servers.

Thanks once again.

Yeah I tried over past hour switching between Virgin and OpenDNS, same problems. I'm trying out Google DNS server which does seem quick and loads iip all sites so far.
