    Resolves to 66.29.81.61 for me. Check what address you're receiving, and try ipconfig /flushdns in case an out of date address is still being locally cached. Or just use that IP in a browser.

    I very much doubt Magnet could be bothered blocking sites the same as 99.9% of ISP's couldn't be bothered

    cramp, infraction given for giving a link to a warez site...count yourself VERY lucky you were not banned!

    Perhaps the site is having its own DNS issues, have you tried using different DNS servers?
    This would allow you to rule out your ISP blocking it also

    Lads......seriously.....we are not blocking this site.
