That sounds fishy. Might not be the cause, but I'd be inclined to go after it anyway. I assume you're using MS Internet Exploder? It might be worth downloading Firefox, which is a better browser all round.
The problem sounds very much like a DNS server problem - I've seen the same happen from time to time.
However ... I can't connect to
http://www.heraldsun.news.com either, so maybe they changed DNS and it hasn't percolated through yet.
If you can't get to your weather site at bom.gov.au then try this link, which should take you to exactly the same place (it's the URL of that site):
http://134.178.63.140/weather/vic/
If that works, then it's a DNS server thing. Wait another day or two to see if it sorts itself out.
