    As you might have noticed, www.comp.dit.ie isn't resolving properly (and therefore appears to be.."down"). If you go to the ip directly it just redirects you to the domain (probably because even when you go to the ip you're sending a host value. Your browser takes the address bar host and submits it as the host. As multiple websites can be hosted on one ip, the webserver serves the website based on that host.).. In this case, without a host, it throws a 302 and points to "http://www.comp.dit.ie/website07"

    Anyway don't mind all that, to get it back, edit your hosts file and put this in...

    Windows 7
    edit C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

    In linux it's generally /etc/hosts

    use notepad

    put in
    147.252.224.87 www.comp.dit.ie

    presto.
