Hey Alex,
I've encountered the same problem with RoadRunner. The way the RoadRunner
tech explained it to me, when they make changes to the server, those changes
are not being properly propigated. Shutting down the cable modem, and then
starting it back up after a minute or two fixes it.
Not sure how Windows works around this, or what a more elegant solution would
be...
HTH,
Ian
