just to inform you guys that open dns is having problems to open www.google.com since yesterday.but gmail and other google services work fine.
open dns guys are working on it currently and so you may want to change your dns temporarily.

i changed to bsnl's dns and google works fine.

Qwerty's facing it too, and he's loosing his leftover hair over it

That answers my problem! I was facing these with Ubuntu Hardy.
But amazingly in Windows the problem does not appear with FF3b5 but persists with Safari 3.1! What a bizarre situation.

UPDATE : It is working now in Ubuntu Hardy

same here!
temporarily shifted to Yahoo search

and mapped google.com with its ip in host file.

well,even I felt.but now its OK.also,what worked for me,is to use google.co.in or www.google.com <= see the www part
