I can access any website I wish except www.reed.co.uk which is a job site. The error is below. I have disabled zone alarm firewall and all antivirus. Any Idea?

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.reed.co.uk.

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few

moments.

* 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.

this is happening in IE and Firefox?

I can get to it fine so the site's up. I work at an ISP and although there could be a number of reasons, firstly I'd ask the ISP you're with to check their DNS resolution for this site.

If you browse to http://217.64.230.225/ do you get there?

mmmm thanks but I was hoping to not have to call Virgin. Customer service is not their thing. Its the only site that won`t load. I was wondering if my PC had black listed it some how.

Yes it does work using the IP address. Many thanks. I take it thats a DNS issue with virgin/NTL whoever they are?

Mods, close this if you want.

Ciren Rover...many thanks
