Using IDnets DNS server.
http://www.sickboy.net/
For example, they posted a photo http://www.sickboy.net/images/NI/Mm6.png which was one of 10-15 photos. I couldn't see any of these photos he posted until I changed the DNS to openDNS. A bit strange don't ya think?
Same here, Niall getting 'Server not found' error, ok if I use Hidemyass.com though.
It's slow to load from my work connection.
It's odd isn't it? I've never had an issue seeing a website with IDnet DNS, other than when it's a new website still propagating around the net, but this is most odd. Other people on other ISPs can see it fine, which I don't understand.
HideMyAss = OK
Zen DNS = No go
IP lookup for the domain is 209.200.252.150 and OpenDNS shows this too.
Tracert to that IP looks like this
4tracert 209.200.252.150

Sickboy.net will simply not resolve.
Loads OK here, I'm using a mixture of IDNet/Google DNS
Can you run a tracert Glenn?

Weird, can get it via a Google search but not directly.
All loads fine, site and pic, using Norton DNS.
so its being blocked by UK ISPs, why?
Mystery solved.
Its the way the domain has been set up, www.sickboy.net doesn't map to an IP whereas sickboy.net does.
That's a bit of a cr*p oversight by a domain hosting company!
Have seen this before with hosts.
