Not at the moment - I think I had at DT a few days ago.

Maybe its problems just for south sweden or something. I tried for 10 hours now but nothing...

Ason, I have the same problems. I think it's connected with a peering contract fight between Cogent and TeliaSonera.

p.s.: I'm from Slovenia, my service provider is SiOL and somehow the culprit is the shutting off of some routing traffic from Europe to USA via Cogent networks. Check this out: http://gigaom.com/2008/03/14/the-telia-cogent-spat-could-ruin-web-for-many/.

I am able to check the pages through the mobile phone internet network, but I obviously can't upload that way and neither am I to use anonymous proxy servers (it's just too dangerous).

As said: you could use a web proxy (for example http://www.myinternetproxy.com/ or many, many more: just type in the addres in the box), but it's too dangerous to route your traffic via a proxy. Dreamstime and BigStock are accessible that way, but someone could snatch your user/pass. I'd highly avoid such action.

p.s.: I sure hope they will get this thing solved. It's getting on my nerves, especially since my internet provider support is keeping silence and acting like jerks.

I haven't been having any problems today.

Please forgive an obvious suggestion, but I often forget, so - Have you cleared your cache? If not, that may help.

I've learnt a trick in FP forum the other day, and it helped me when Yahoo Mail wasn't opening due to DNS problem. In a DOS/command window, type:

ipconfig /flushdns
