I can't access my own site addresses:
http://www.rogerdavies.eu
http://www.roger-davies.net
Virgin have repeatedly said there is nothing wrong with the site or my broadband connection. But obviously there is. Here is what happens when I try and ping the server:

Sorry to double-post, but I should also say that if you use a proxy, such as
theproxyfree.com or
the-cloak.com the sites will probably work fine.
Why Virgin are having such problems is anyones' guess, but I know where the problem lies. It's something about their IP addresses and the server we're trying to connect to.
