here's a copy of my message to istock. anyone around the world but Estonia and China have the same problem?

(anonymuse.org gives me access to istock, but i'm not willing to log in under such service with my password)

***

hello!

i can not access istock for more than 48 hours, it gives me the message:

Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://www.istockphoto.com/" on this server.

Reference #18.4ef6d4d9.1254507454.73b21fe

***

i know it's not my PC issue, and others people using same ISP cannot access istock too. ISP is infonet.ee from Estonia, and it's the biggest in my country.

please let me know if possible, what's the problem with my ISP and will the issue be fixed anytime soon.

thanks a lot in advance,

lev dolgachov

Before several months,two days one of sites didn't work at me here in Croatia...
I think that message was the same...
After day or two everything was normal, but then another site didn't work again for day or two...

Maybe some checking or something else from your internet providers...

Estonia is in EU, there is no reason why to block IS...

I'm in china now and can't access IS or hotmail.  Every other stock site and gmail works fine though.

For me it was strange, IS and hotmail were both blocked but both now work.  When one would work so would the other and when one was seeming to be blocked (timing out or not finding the server) the other was not working.  There seemed to be some connection, also all of my images from SS just showed up as the names of the files while the other sites weren't working but when they did work the images showed up.  Maybe someone smarter than me can figure out the connections.
