Changing the resolvers will only provide a temporary fix, the issue is with the domain itself.

 

The DNS servers for the domain are listed as:

Name Server: ns1.nfernohosting.com
Name Server: ns1.nfernoosting.uk
Name Server: ns1.nfernohosting.net

Spot the typo or rogue record.

 

That means 33% of the time NS server is resolving to a dud host. The dud host is returning random rogue/malware/spam DNS records.

 

You can see this using the Squish DNS tool herehttp://dns.squish.net

 

  1. Try "www.manxforums.com" with "A" record selected
  2. Try "manxforums.com" with NS record selected

In both cases, visualise it. The results and the % likelihood of receiving said result will be displayed.

 

Whoever made the change (malicious or otherwise) has set the TTL on the rogue NS servers to 604800 (7 days) compared to the usual 24 hours.

 

Might be worth someone having a word and getting it rectified (e.g. on the domain-control panel / registrar)
