Just how geeky am I?

Well, ntl have screwed up again and their DNS servers have been down since about 4 o'clock. So I'm sat here at home unable to do anything on the 'net. Until I have the bright idea of logging into our web server remotely, via IP address of course, and using win XP's remote desktop facility to open up IE and get my Pistoheads fix that way!

just use alternate DNS servers, like has been said.
Cheeky hint on how, is just WHOIS a domain, 99% of the nameservers listed will be public facing for queries
I'd have done that if I had any alternative addresses, but it was one of those catch-22 situations where I couldn't go looking for an alternative DNS without a working DNS. D'oh!
Made a note of some now for next time it happens
