Do you have a firewall?
Maybe your firewall is set too high??
Our firewall is set to standard, but when it gets reset to high, then we have trouble unless we have typed in the sites to which we allow access.
Otherwise I dont have any other suggestions, except to ask your ISP. It is possible that your ISP has blocked them for some odd reason.

I have tried this at work today, and no problem, thus showing there is no problem with the site.
I havn't knowingly made any changes to my browser settings, and desperatelty need to get back to the site.

You could try Ctl+F5 to force a reload of the page. But I always use this link...

Will wait with baited breath!
Reckon that it would be about the same time that I lost the ability to view the site.
No problem with any other site at all. I agree that it looks like the problem is not at our end so to speak, and I wonder just how we can get it corrected if thats the case.
Like to know the outcome of your friends visit, and hopefully the solution...........honestly i will say a prayer tonight!
Cheers,
Derek

I mailed tiscali last night, with the details, and a link to this thread.
Mail back telling me that it was received, and their reply will follow.
Expecting them to tell me nothing to do with tiscali, been reading a lot of posts on help sites regarding tiscali and pages that will not load, and 'not our problem, seems the common reply.
Would like to hear from other tiscali users to know if they can connect

Hello every one,
cantacted tiscali, and their reply is.....its not their problem.
Taking it further with them, as I now know of 8 people who cannot acces thie site, and they are all on tiscali!
Maybe we should all contact them individually and put pressure on them.
Can everyone contact friends and family who might be on tiscali to see if they can access this site?
Shold a new topic be posted just aimed at tiscali useres, or is this just duplicating this topic?
