I can access the turbo minis web site from home. (Work is ok)

Dissabled my fire wall, run my virus checker, checked for spyware etc.

What could the problem be?
My ISP is NTLWORLD

I've recently installed service pack 2

Any ideas anyone please........

We recently changed from name-based to IP based hosting, but that shouldnt have taken this long to transfer over.. and i'm on NTL at home and it works fine..

I get a DNS error or can't find server.

Tried the cookies thing already.

I can ping the site, and get an ip.

Gonna try taking my work laptop home to rule out a fire wall problem.

add this to your windows host file

www.turbiminis.co.uk "tab" 67.15.32.217

replace "tab" with a tabbed space, you host file will be
c:windowssystem32drivers ecthost

if your running nt it may be winnt and not windows

Just to conclude this thread...

E-mailed NTL and got an automated reply, no reply from a human as yet (useless cnts).

Anyway, there's quite a lot of people complaining about the DNS servers including cardiff.
No one I know in cardiff on ntl could access this site.
Anway, I added a proxy server 193.111.200.91 and now everything is working propa again.

Cheers everyone for your help.
