Server not found...

Anyone getting these? Don't know if it's a local issue or a national issue.
I have to refresh a couple of times to get the page to show properly.

Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at cableforum.co.uk.
* Check the address for typing errors such as ww.example.com instead of www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

TS5 (Boro) Area. I thought it was a google issue at first since it first happened when searching but now it seems to happen to pretty much every site i've been on.

Suspect an issue with Virgins DNS servers ?

Yep, that too, like it only retrieves part of the webpage...

Started doing this yesterday for me. I could be happliy browsing any web site. Navigate away to another then get Server not found on a site I had been viewing only 5 minutes before. Tried with IE and Safari, both having same problems, also tried with desktop & laptop with same results.
Also noticed that lots of embedded pictures on forums etc are not displaying.

Used my ZEN dial up and that works fine, if rather slowly.

Guys, could this be related to my post "DNS Cache". Try & repair your connection & see.

iadom · 07-08-2008, 00:09

Did that last night and again today to no avail.
