Several sites not working all of a sudden?

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone else on NTL are having the same problems?

Its pretty specific, I can't access www.hotmail.com; on www.abbey.com I can't access the log-in page and at www.iwebsharedealing.co.uk I can't log in either (click on the 'trading' tab if you want to test it). This is very odd because they've all stopped working at once.. is this just bad luck or is it NTL? I'm with NTL in Kent, by the way.. and as I'm sure you can tell from the last two addresses it's pretty important that they work..

..any help most appreciated!

Hi, thanks for the response, yes I've been trying several NTL ones (alot from all over) but to no avail, I'm just about to try some outside of the ntl network with sockscap and sockschain.

I used 148.244.150.58:80 as the proxy and it didn't work, but I was just using it for http, I forgot to use it for ssl as well and now its working fine.. it seems like a pretty good proxy so I recommend using that or another outside of ntl till its fixed. Again, thanks for the help!

Re: Several sites not working all of a sudden?

It seems I am back to proxy dancing some sites I have to access via Renf.cache5. I seem to be on Manc 10 the most but today it just seems to like every other website I visit. Deffintely not ISPreview.
