@ jp – I had a problem like that with a site a few months ago. Is your ISP at work the same as at home? It could be a problem with their DNS service.

And yes, I’ve had problems like that at Sedo too.

I was wondering, am I the only one that has problems bidding on Sedo auctions occasionally? Sometimes I go to bid, (i’ve already logged in), and when i click place bids, it takes me back to a login screen. I almost lost an auction over this once.

Random other item as well. Every time i go to godaddy.com in my browser it does not resolve the first time. The first time I try to go to that Url (godaddy.com) it does a search based on my default search engine with my browser. If I type it in again, it always works the second time. This happens at my home and office, and on every computer I try, so its either them or me. If I close the browser window and try again it is ok, unless I let it wait like 30 minutes or so.
