To add a little more info to my last question:

All the websites resolv correctly from within our domain/ip range.  They
also resolv correctly for anyone that sets their DNS on their pc/mac to one
of ours.

Someone suggested a possible problem with the fact that the 'name' that
Internic knows our DNS machines by is actually a CNAME to the machine.
Acknowledging that it might be the problem I changed the hostname to the
*NIC name and changed the appropriate the dns records to reflect that, but
I cant see that it has helped anything.

The main website that we are getting the biggest complaints on is
"www.auctiondepottx.com" which is one of several virtual websites at
209.83.225.63.

We're not doing any type of flat out ip blocking with a firewall, and the
problem seems to be intermittent.

One other user was getting complaints (with a different website) and tried
hitting their website (www.cityofmesquite.com)  from 10 different local
providers within a 30 minute time period.  Only one of the providers had a
problem getting to the site, so it was hard for us to say it was our fault.

If it is something that we have configured incorrectly I want to get it
fixed, if it is something else outside of our control I would like to know
about it just so that I have a definitive answer to give our customers.

As always, thanks in advance.
