When visiting www.wwwsolutions.net, I get a timed out message.
This seems to only hapen when visiting 'through Virgin Media'.
Using other ISPs I can access normaly.
Does Virgin operate a blacklist of IPs / Domain names ?
or is 'something else going on'.
I have cleared the cache, rebooted PC etc. but no change.
Any help appreciated.

If it were on a blacklist you'd get a message saying so, I just tried it and it works OK for me, it's possible that your ip is banned try switching to modem mode and seeing if it will connect as this gives you a different ip address

Hi folks,
Still unable to access this site via virgin's service...
But I can access it using a VPN
So that would seem [to me] to confirm it is my Virgin IP that is the problem...
The question is,how can I change it ?
I don't mind using the VPN to keep me out of troube, but I certainly don't want it to become 'the norm'.

The site that you are trying to access doesn't have the www at the beginning.

Thanks, sadly for me [and it seems me alone] with or without the 'www' I get the 'timed out message.
But always worth trying.
