America has dissappeared

Is anyone else having trouble with connecting to USA web sites? My ISP is saying cannot connect, no matter which USA site I try, including NASA and Hubble and Cloudy Nights.

Don't know if the USA connection is broked or my ISP (Primus) is broked.

Looks like Primus might be having probs. I can get .com.au, but no other sites. Although I admit, not being able to connect to Microsoft is probably not really a fault!!

Alas Primus has rectified their problems and USA has re-appeared (including Microsoft). Happy again!
