Saw your post, clicked a favourite, saw the frontpage.

Now if you mean did it work later than that, I don't know, but I can see the "enter a search item" page.

Ditto here.
Did a search on Google for "gmail and google", got to the google sign in page.Don't have an account so didn't go further than that.

Check your "hosts" file to see if something has pissed about with it?

I once had a problem where I couldn't reach any search engine, but my hosts file was knackered.

It's worth a shot?

Well, it's working okay for me, so I'm guessing it's a personal problem. Try what The Caffeine Kid suggested.

This morning, the other half couldn't use MSN but when I hopped onto IRC I found it was fine for others.

Plusnet's status page mentions a DNS problem that's "affecting other ISPs" and is outside of their control, so I guess it's an issue "higher up" that is catching several people.

I dont have any idea what that is. I did find some spyware recently, and I have been buggering about with my firewall a lot.

Edit:Fixed it! Just had to reboot my router(I think thats why its fixed anyway).
