This is an unfortunately common occurrence.  Often I will have clients call
me saying they can not email Company XYZ (almost always a bank for some
reason) so I call XYZ and they either have a bogus route in their equipment
or are not running classless and are treating 63.0.0.0 as a local network
(for example).

Suppose that might have been helpful info had I followed the thread, heh.
Apologies.

Conclusion:  After talking to Cable and Wireless, they informed me
that the server in question was actually the NSI router that connects
NSI to the world.  I contacted NSI and gave them the information
(finally spoke with someone that could speak english there) and
within an hour, it was fixed and everything's working again.  Thanks
to all of you and your help getting this resolved.  It's amazing what
you learn when stuff goes haywire.  BTW: the dns issues were
related to csocs.com being expired and the nameservers giving out
old information.  NSI has corrected this problem also and should be
fixed in 24-48 hours (one of their nice billing techs misapplied funds).
Thanks again.
