Topic: Telstra stupidness

For whatever reason, Telstra has decided to toy around with a transparent web-proxy, resulting in traffic destined to www.qgl.org to be sent to the wrong IP (an IP that it hasn't resided on for over a year, but anyway).

In the meantime I've added a DNS entry "syd1.qgl.org" which gets to the right server, and "www.qgl.org" (on the old server) will redirect to the correct address. Hopefully Telstra will turn the proxy off and everything will go back to normal soon.

The usual banner ads are also not displaying; so if you're getting weird results in your general web browsing, now you know why.

Users not on BPA will be unaffected.

Isn't iPrimus related to Telstra somehow? In the same way Dingoblue is too Optus? I could be nuts but I just have this nagging feeling there is a connection between the two,

That may be why my copy of Opera now doesn't like the forums (was working one thread, wasn't the next...)
