Nah. JaNET's shafted. Again. And it's all too easy to blame the firewall when 
it's not actually its fault.

Jon Masters: You're not on a JaNET connection, are you? Or are you still 
living in Nottingham Halls of Residence?

And apparently something similar happened on Saturday:
- --snip from oxford newsgroup

Currently there appears to be no connectivity between JANET networks and
above.net, the provider over whose network traffic to sites such as
Google, Hotmail, mail-abuse.org, etc is carried.  The main JANET
transatlantic link
(Teleglobe) is unaffected.
