Its not NTL mate as I have a 10mb connection with them and can get the 2 sites you mention.

If it were me I would clear all cookies and temp internet files and give it another try.

Hi mate i have had same prob to, but only couldn't get on here or photo bucket web site, tried everything and still wouldn't graft, been like that for over a week, just would come up blank page. tried new anti viruses and new spy ware and everything, was really doing my head in big time. my girlfriend installed Mozilla Firefox last night and comes straight on when you go through that, i dont know much about computers really so still dont know why its doing it but im back on for now anyway! P.S. Im on NTL too.
