Hi all,
The oddest thing has started happening to me recently...  DirecWay's DNS servers seem to have lost some of my favorite sites.  I can't visit them, and pinging them just results in a "server not found" error.  It's like they've disappeared.

Except that on other computers (not DirecWay-connected ones), everything is fine.  I get RSS feeds from them, and there are new posts on a regular basis.  I just can't see the actual site.

The two sites are www.yarnharlot.ca, and www.oldshawfarm.com .  Has anyone else ever experienced anything similar with DirecWay?  My DNS server is 66.82.4.8.

Thanks for any advice --
Eileen

Hmmm.  Well, maybe the problem only exists with yarnharlot, then.  But still!
