I suddenly can't get to many websites I have bookmarked, including:
- Yahoo
- Geocities
- Several small overseas servers
- Terraserver
- Yahoo maps
Your pages are also showing some of the ads broken.
What's going on? It's like a large portion of the Internet is down.

Everything came back about an hour later with no changes on my part. So it wasn't on my end. But since my ISP is the phone company, it could be that they were having problems from the storms.

But I wanted to find out which of the following had happened:
- My ISP somehow went bonkers (this was probably the case)
- Something destructive (malicious software) had invaded the internet.
- The storms caused a widespread power failure (the 2003 Northeast blackout and Hurricane Katrina were the causes the last two times I saw failures like this).

So then why not ask the question in the network troubleshooting forums? Because although it may have not been your end, I don't quite think DaniWeb is providing your internet connection...

I know that somthing at my ISP was down, because I couldn't get to any of the ISP's own websites. But I don't understand how I was still able to connect to some other sites not connected to the ISP, but not others.
