I should have guessed it was you Vince! :-)

I have tried both .org and .com already. I tried the link WakkiTabakki
provided in his message too. I even did a searche in Google for
"distrowatch" and tried to click links for pages that reside at
distrowatch.com. None of these things worked :-(

This is very strange. I visit a lot of web pages daily, many of which I
haven't visited before and I haven't had similar problems with any pages
during the time I have had this problem with Distrowatch :-o

If I remember right Vince, one of the replies you got for your question
about this subject back then suggested that the problem could somehow be
with the name server you use. Do you happen to have that thread saved?
Maybe it could help me. I'm completely incapable of resolving problem
myself :-/

Thanks,

Ari
