I just wanted to go onto imgur this morning and it just times me out. I looked on isup.me which shows if websites are online or down and it says its up so i got confused. I looked into it a bit and found a site called blocked.org.uk It shows connections with each popular british isp, if it can contact it and if the site is blocked for that isp. And guess what i found? Virgin media is the only isp that timesout... Great

Use Tor maybe it helps, btw the Isp here is horrible, too. Its dns server doesn't know stackoverflow and if it's in a troll mood computercraft.info too

Apparently Virgin knows, and you can even register to have them SMS you when it's fixed.

You might aswell just use a VPN whenever it's not working, or maybe private browsing mode? I'm not sure if that changes it but I do know that it spoofs your IP

No it doesn't. It simply doesn't save any local stuff, like Cookies or Session Storage.
