I thought at first that I had set my FF settings so that it did not allow enough time, but Phoronix and Guardian links come up immediately with the error message. Unixmen does take a bit, but eventually comes up with the same error. Then I tried it in Chromium with the same result. Then I tried Safari in Wine. Same. Then I tried FF in XP VM. Same. I went to my wife's computer with Mint 10 and XP. Same result there. Lastly I tried my netbook with Ubuntu 10.10 and XP. Got nowhere.
I think that it must be my ISP. I am still looking into that. It can't be my computer when I have tried three computers, three different OSes and several browsers all with the same result. I have a neighbour with an insecure connection, but his signal is weak today. When it picks up I will try his internet which uses a different provider. If it does not work there, then I am flummoxed.
