Hi All

Can someone else here on Snap adsl try going to [domain].

My Current dns settings (default) seem to not resolve it.

Where as if i use 8.8.8.8 (googles dns) works like a charm.

Is it meant to be like this?

Cheers

Hi there - resolves fine for me on Snap at home! Tried all the standard stuff, flush DNS, clear cache / temp internet files etc?

Cheers!

On a completely unrelated note... The domain leads to copyrighted content being distributed without licence from the owners. I am removing any references to that domain.

Also, the domain links to movie downloads in another domain, then asks to download a "plugin" to play the movies.

Way to go to get your PC infected with crap malware folks... Given up security for some pirated content.
