Oh, okay Soybean. That's that hypothesis out of the window. I guess the target IP depends on your location. Maybe in the US you get 66.xxx.xxx.xxx while in the UK we get 145.xxx.xxx.xxx.
crispbreeze, now you're a whizz at working the command prompt, could we move onto the next test? This time use the following command: telnet www.wikipedia.org 80
Again, please give the output, if any. If it appears that nothing is happening after a while, you can just close the command prompt.
