It is a DNS issue, no idea if TL can fix that, or if it is just some bad ISP.
A work around is adding the following lines to your hosts file:
67.228.171.232 teamliquid.net
67.228.171.232 www.teamliquid.net
The "hosts" file is typically located at "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc"
If you use the hosts file, remember to remove it once TL works normally again, or you'll have blocked yourself if TL changes its IP in the future.

You can also try to access it from behind a free proxy of some sort. In SA we have tons of dns issues, so I often use that.

i just switched to opendns work now, the proxy stuff i knew of because else iwouldntz have been able to post :p (many thanks anyways though)
big thx MasterOfChaos for bringing temporarily order to the interwebz

We moved the domain to another registrar, but the previous one also hosted the DNS. Quickly after the domain got moved the DNS service was disabled on the old registrar.
The settings / domain stuff got fixed yesterday but some isp's take a bit longer to update their dns servers.

i was really wondering wtf was going on for a little while. so i just have to wait for a few days for the isps to correct themselves and everything will be working fine?

Thank you SOOOOOO MUCH. The hosts file fix worked like a charm. I don't know what I would do without my daily fix of TL!

Yeah, kind of off and on since last night.

Our provider is having DNS issues again, I'm considering running our own DNS so at least if the DNS goes down TL will be down anyway so it wouldn't matter .

go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
open the hosts file with an editor of your choice and add the the lines posted in the op.
save the file (can be a bit tricky because you have to save it without file extension).

save it somewhere else as .txt (to the desktop or smth like that), remove the file extension, copy it into the acutal directory and overwrite the old file.
it's a good idea to backup the old one before overwriting it though.

it seems tl works now
thank you for your help
