    Then answer, of course, is that you need to arrange for all relevant sites' content to be loaded onto CUK's server. It's the simple solution that often comes to us last.

    When it's back, print out a hard copy for reference in case it goes again.

    Rumbled. I was trying to short the internet. Fortunes to be made. And I would've gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those pesky kids.

    Thank you for calling the CUK Helpdesk.

    My name is Ajit, how can I help?

    Have you tried rebooting the internet?

    Please do so, and advise if this rectifies your problem.

    At the risk of more flaming and/or ridicule, I'm using Opera/Ubuntu.

    There is now a smart filter on the internet, you will find you can not access those sites that are too intellectual or simply beyond your capabilities.
    I am surprised you can still get on here.
