    What's the exact URL you're going to? What address does it resolve to?

    No issue here. Going to boards as expected.

    But boards.ie doesn't use nginx, it's on LightHTTPd, so he's going to some web server, somewhere. So I suspect some kind of DNS dodginess is occurring.

    ipconfig /flushdns
    net stop dnscache

    Have a look to see if it still happens.
