In case you're wondering why I'm not that visible on XCOMUfo: DNS doesn't work from my local ISP, I have to use a long-distance call to reach an ISP that'll get there.  At least, until I actually purchase broadband (which *won't* be from the local ISP).  It's one of four domains I want to routinely visit, that are affected this way; they're all EU-hosted.

:Wow.  I've never even heard of an ISP that doesn't offer DNS.  Severely restrictive firewall?  Something like [http://www.opendns.com/faq/ opendns] won't work?--[[User:Ethereal Cereal|Ethereal Cereal]] 11:20, 23 March 2007 (PDT)
 
 
:Zaimoni, I actually have the same problem here too. I had to manually add a DNS server of 66.133.150.12. Don't know if you can reach it or not. Probably something I should talk to my ISP, because I was getting it for a while and then it stopped. I'm not sure how XComUFO's site is set-up, but http-ing to the same IP just gives an error, it has to have the name in the request.
:I just now noticed the DNS server I added wasn't responding but I could still get the site, but anyways there's a list of DNS servers here [http://myway.faq.frontiernet.net/faq_answer.asp?q=143] through frontiernet.
