PB: your ISP might be the cause again. (more likely their DNS servers)
Heres a screengrab:

I'm at work, so I doubt it... I will re-check when I'm home (different ISP).

Be sure they dont use a proxy in that case! - if they do - the proxy might be the cause of that error message.

Here's the full error message I get at home/work:
So, it would seem your ISP caches are holding the domain longer than they
should be... whereas my ISP shows me the true "live" page.
Here's the full error message I get at home/work:
Code: Select all
The dnsserver returned:
Name Error: The domain name does not exist.
This means: The proxy server was not able to resolve the hostname
presented in the URL. The website you have tried to view may not exist.
Please check if the address is correct and retry your request.

OR: your PROXY server has denied the hostname. Or it does not work.
I can even ping the domain, and get a response.
We tried with about 4-5 isp's and i have seen problems with other isps too like this, so i really doubt its our isp's...

Hehehe, I guess I was in denial that it was just my end.

probably heh..
but of course im not 100% sure, its just most likely that it is your isp.
edit: Try to use a free proxy server to see if it works.

Outpost gives a 'malformed DNS request' message here. If that is disabled i get 'Cannot find server or DNS Error'. If the domain is shortened to 63 characters it works fine. Wikipedia says:
But i think the limit was previously 63 characters for the entire domain, or maybe not...Each label to the left specifies a subdivision or subdomain of the domain above it. Note that "subdomain" expresses relative dependence, not absolute dependence: for example, wikipedia.org comprises a subdomain of the org domain, and en.wikipedia.org could form a subdomain of the domain wikipedia.org (in practice, however, en.wikipedia.org actually represents a hostname - see below). In theory, this subdivision can go down to 127 levels deep, and each label can contain up to 63 characters, as long as the whole domain name does not exceed a total length of 255 characters. But in practice some domain registries have shorter limits than that.
