Right Move - Working intermittently but very slow
One of my local estate agents - Whatever link you click it takes you to a form to fill-in search criteria
Another of my local agents - Site completely down

Everything else is working on the internet, it just seems to be property sites.

I think a lot of agents sites are very closely interconnected with Rightmove. ie they rely on it to host the majority of their stock content.
