Because the SSL certificates I kept getting while attempting to access paradise.net.nz on a LAN hosted by another ISP, were either yahoo or google. And when I clicked on them to try to get through - purely out of frustration - the sites I was sent to _were_ yahoo or google sites.
Either that or the capacities of the router we are using are sadly overestimated and it runs out of cache (or something) whenever I tried to access another NZ ISP's webmail through it. Or perhaps it is a function of the vast overload that the NNet internet connection has had on the 18th-20th and the 25th. Gordon Taylor of the NNet thinks the wifi was cracked ... anyway, NNet's down to dialup rates now.
