Re: Proxy servers gone, having webpage issues

There is still a virgin proxy server if you want to try it (you have to manually set it).

webcache.virginmedia.com (port 8080) is the address.

sorry if you've done this, but it sounds like you need to clear your history & cookie files?

- how you do that depends on which browser & operating system you have/use ?..?

Re: Proxy servers gone, having webpage issues

can u ping the websites you're having trouble accessing?

may well be worth resetting web settings

there certainly should b a working proxy for the ntl side which im guessing your on as the webcache.blueyonder.co.uk on port 8080 is definitely correct for former telewest customers.

if you've not got a working proxy phonin tech support should get you that if they offer nothin else

Those pictures aren't available. Maybe uploading them as attachments would be better?
