Can anyone get to National Lottery site?
I'm at the outlaws who have Waitrose t'internet but I'm using OpenDNS, and can't get onto the national lottery website. I've VNC'd onto a machine in Bracknell which is using Tesco's DSL, but again OpenDNS and still can't get to the site.
Can anyone else get to it?

Re: Can anyone get to National Lottery site?
Me too, OpenDNS = Fail , BT DNS = Success.

I've posted on the OpenDNS forums and raised a ticket with their support team.

You can get to the site here though:-
