Why is VM apparently blocking access to .info domains?
I own a website which I host my homepage and email at, http://milambar.fundungeon.info, and every time I try and load it, I'm told the domain doesn't exist (Address not found). The same goes for ANY domain ending in .info.
If I change my nameservers to opendns, it works fine. So I assume that VM's nameservers are not processing .info domains.
I'd like to know why?

Works fine in North-West Leeds, ex-NTL, not using OpenDNS.
Have you tried pinging it, Allan, to see where it fails?

Re: Why is VM apparently blocking access to .info domains?
Fast enough upload here in West of Scotland, ex TW. A bit disappointed though, I hoped the fundungeon reference might have given me a reason to be viewing tinternet content I shouldn't be...  ...honest love I was trying to help a bloke on CF and it directed me to this sight with manacled, leather clad.... I'll stop there....
