I see, thanks. The ones I usually get (193.170.140.71, 193.170.140.79) 
are at least registered with *.akamaitechnologies.com in the DNS, unlike 
those that Jeremy gets.

With such a big number of heterogenous servers with different ISPs, 
there might also be a chance of a temporary/local failure.

Let's see what Jeremy will find out.

Martin.
