Is there repeat of this issue?  I cannot get past this on traceroute:

ae-3-5.bar1.tampa1.level3.net (4.69.148.214)

...so unable to reach Illy

 

Heh.  And you will remember, of course, to nslookup the cdnX domains over the next couple of days, and when they match the authoritative records, to remove the hosts file entries, won't you...?

EDIT: That's if, of course, you did the hosts file thing...  To those people who think I'm speaking even more gobbledigook than usual, please ignore everything except my first post in this thread.

Thanks for the heads up though.

Yes, very much so belargyle - many apologies.  It will all work again soon on it's own.

It's possible, if you're highly-network-and-OS-literate that you could force your computer to work by looking up the new authoritative records, flushing your revolver DNS cache and by putting manual DNS and IP entries for the new records into your local system's hosts file... 

But I'm certainly not recommending anyone does any of that, or even describing how to do it, as this could be very dangerous advice in inexperienced hands!  Basically, if you know how to do it, you have probably already done it.  

If you don't know how to do it or don't know what I'm talking about, I strongly recommend you don't start googling this procedure as you will inevitably end up on a 36 hours phonecall with a technical support department in Bangladesh before throwing your now entirely useless computer out of the nearest window - and blaming me for showing you how to force your computer to do things it shouldn't be doing.
