I don't, but then I use Firefox.

Poplar here and I get a blank news item as well, switching proxy works as usual.

One of many that fail in some way, I gave up reporting them as its a waste of time.

I thought this had already been shown not to be a proxy issue, since marky is not routed via ntl proxies, but does have a problem.

Then why did this happen

Yep. I picked a proxy at random (watford) & it works again (normally, I'm on Poplar).

I'll probably pick a different home page to read my morning news, rather than play with proxies.

Agreed. I found myself on a proxy today for pretty much the first time since getting broadband - ;-( - so i thought I'd check this. I can confirm that the other proxies I tried didn't show the page, while Watford 1 did.

Definitely a proxy issue to my mind.

OK. Looks like I was lucky in picking Watford at random. Just gone through 24 proxies using the cache-1 server in each case. Some displayed the news article & some didn't.

The ones that work are:-
brhm, brnt, glfd, hudd, lutn, midd, nrth, nott, pete, watf.

The ones that don't work are:-
asfd, belf, cdif, colc, cosh, hers, leed, manc, oxfd, popl, renf, sotn, swan, winn.

In each case I went to the ntlworld news page & clicked on the London Bombings Public Enquiry story.

Yes I tried using different proxies. I'm on the Cosham proxy by default. And yes some worked on the NTL news site and some didn't. So yes I would say it's definately a proxy problem. My Cosham one does not work for this. But I won't be changing proxy just to view the NTL news site. I will go to other news sites instead. Like the BBC ones.
