Is there a problem with AB tonight?

[factor-fiction]

When I try to log on I get a message saying the site can't be found. I have had to get in via a long way round. Is there a problem for others?

openDNS? You must be joking!

Mine was trying to connect to the correct adress but got message "can not connect to website etc"

I reckon it's the solar flares

Problems logging on from Sweden as well. Normally use Firefox, nothing doing. Tried IE - same problem. IE diagnosed it as a firewall problem though not the firewall on my computer but a more remote one. Just as I clicked a link to read more about the diagnosis AB opened up and here I am now - but this is the second time I've written this reply, the first one deleted itself. No problems with any other sites.

Hey, I did say *like* openDNS :)

Talk talk do it on their connections too, if you use their DNS you get redirected to a landing page giving alternative possible sites if there is no response from the site you're after.

anyhow, not important, it was clearly a temporary burp with something beyond our control.

I had the same problem as well. Thing is this is exactly what happened a few weeks ago when I couldn't connect with IE, FF or Chrome. I was able to connect through my mob though.
