Re: ntlworld.com not working!!!!!!!!!
No problem with it here.
Maybe your proxy has a problem.

NTL intercept your requests for web pages and route them through a transparent web proxy cache. This caches pages that have been requested at a local level meaning that backbone traffic is reduced. They can be problematic and at times changing the proxy being used can enable you to access sites that you are having difficulty with. Robin Walker has an excellent site which gives all the details including haw to change proxies.

Re: ntlworld.com not working!!!!!!!!!
Seems to me http://www.ntlworld.com is currently having problems on some proxies, don't worry though it'll most probably be sorted out soon.

Re: ntlworld.com not working!!!!!!!!!
Sounds more like a routing issue somewhere if some can see it and others cannot.

Re: ntlworld.com not working !
doesnt work here
my guess is that the site IS down, and for those that see it they are getting the cached version, these proxies fool you quite easy.

That's possibly as well - but I did try it from one of my servers which connected direct ok - but that was pretty late on so it may have been working agin by then anyway.
