I am on RR here in Texas. I haven't been able to get on to drudge in the last couple days. I tried that weather underground, and I couldn't reach that site, either.

What's going on here?

If you all are still having problems getting to sites like Drudge and Photobucket, there is a work around at this point.

See this thread for what specifically is the problem, and go here to find the work around. It is a tiny download and requires no configuration at all. What it does is establish a Virtual Private Network through google, and gets around the part of the net which is causing you guys these problems. When things work fine again, it is easily removed. Ignore the fact that it says wifi, since the VPN part works fine on wired connections as well, and that is what does the end run around the broken part of the internet backbone(s)
