  United.COM works from everywhere I try it. MCI, ATT, Internap,
  and Sprint. I can run tickets, check miles, and check my dining
  points.
 
 
 Since I started the thread a month ago... it seemed to me that the
 problem(s) are intermittent and not always repeatable :( I 
 was able to see
 some very odd things in the dns resolution area for their 
 site(s), which
 others had confirmed being problematic over the last few 
 months as well.

You started this? Thanks. I love IKYABWAI threads. :-)

 I'd think that lastnight's 'problem' was just another 
 recurrence of the
 same set of problems :(

Maybe someone at Internap could tell them/ask them what's
going on?

Sorry :( I had thought it was 'resolved' when the last version of this
thread happened... 'resolved' meaning: united.com has issues, they don't
seem to be interested in resolving these issues.

It'd be nice if internap or someone would let them know they have
intermittent bad problems. It'd be nice if someone from united would just
fix it, I don't think anyone really cares to see them own up to it, just
fix it :)

The United Airlines website appears to be down and has been down for =
days.

Is this a network issue or are they out of business??

Darn those pesky alternate root servers.

R's,

Nice try, but the location that I was trying from did not use alternative root 
servers.

FYI: They are Inclusive Namespace Servers.

Currently linked via United News:

The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina is still causing cancellations and some
flight irregularities. Check the status of your flight before traveling and 
read 
on for information about changing travel plans affected by the weather.
We are attempting to recover to full operations as quickly as possible.

Sounds like a local issue.

Their problems go far, far beyond just DNS. They have had consistent
problems for well over a year. Basic stuff--- like booking a ticket. It's no
wonder they can't get out of bankruptcy.
