  1. Hi allCan anyone explain why I can't reach the VPA wesite, when I know others can?Everything was fine until last weekend, but not when I tried again last Thursday or at eny time since. I know someone that uses the same service provider as me who can get there and I can access just about any other website, although I also can't get to the site of VPA's web hosting service.Before people start saying to check my firewalls, reset my browser, flush my DNS etc, I have donec this and tried using two completely different PCs - my desktop (runnning XP Home, IE8, AVG (payware)) with a wireless connection, and a laptop (runnning Windows 7, IE9, NOD32) with a wired connection to the modem/router - both have the same problem. I have checked the modem/router security and website blocking is switched off.The Modem has a DNS lookup utility which returns "Unknown host" when I search for www.virtualpilots.org. I found the IP address on a lookup website, but get no packets returned when I ping it. I get a text only version of the homepage if I enter the IP directly in my browser (the other person using the same ISP goes straight to the normal homepage).I spent an hour on the phone to my ISP (Sky, in the UK), without success.I'm getting desperate for a solution now - does anyone have any ideas? Is anyone else in the same position as me?ThanksDave
