It works over here too. If you really need to get to the site bad, perhaps try using a proxy to access it. There are some available here, but half of them probably wont work so test them:

These can be really good for getting around isolated local internet "hiccups" sometimes. If you need help setting it up (pretty easy), let me know or search google.
