    Lately seem to be having trouble with certain sites, slashdot.org and youtube.com for example during most of the day will just refuse to load or eventually do but in a plain html way no graphics just black on white badly formatted text.

    Messed around using opendns and eircom's dns and both seem to be working ok, so I assume this is some other wierd problem, any ideas?

    It's not DNS because queries are resolving to IPs (unless DNS servers are being poisoned). And I'm not sure if it's Eircom's fault either. I've been having problems with those sites too. The slashdot problem is that the CSS stylesheet (which tells the browser how to display the text) is on a different server that I/we can't access.
    Tracing route to images.slashdot.org [216.34.181.46]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

    The above trace route seems to show that the problem is outside Eircom's network.
