Dunno. Months, perhaps. I know I don't take out blacklists very often on
my servers.

I don't think just switching to another nameserver would solve your
problem, as I think most of these sites filter at the router/firewall. You
need to get your connectivity from another ISP, at least temporarily.
Alternatively, you can use a www proxy from another site outside the
Sky domain, if they'll let you (and if the Sky servers don't proxy your
http stream).
