Hi. Ive been getting a lot of these errors recently over my IS adsl uncapped line in CPT.

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://theonion.com/

The following error was encountered:

* Read Error

The system returned:

(104) Connection reset by peer

An error condition occurred while reading data from the network.
Please retry your request.

Im also getting the error on many otehr pages I once visited happily. Im investigating our proxy server being a problem but was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this?

Other broken lins for me were

http://www.ci.berkeley.ca.us/
www.hattrick.org

I'm have the same problems with Afrihost. Google doesn't want to load either. Local sites seem to load fine, as long as it doesnt contain internationally hosted advertising.

Afrihost use IS as their upstream provider...

EDIT: Seems to be an IS issue, affecting all its downstream ISP clients.. Read here for more...

+1. Just got home to find most of the sites I visit inaccessible. :(
 
Same here. All international traffic dead from last night?
 
With a URL like that surely this is not real.
