a number of web sites, including my provider (Telus) and my bank CIBC). Telus is using a reverse proxy provided by Cloudflare (172.66.0.98), and CIBC is using Telus/Akamai (207.194.199.74). A reverse proxy sits in front of an origin server and ensures that no client ever communicates directly with that origin server.

Some time ago, I had a similar problem with "VBForums.com", and I was able to work around that issue. This problem however is different in that if I wait long enough, it eventually loads (most of the time). As I am preparing this message, now VBForums also has this same problem as I try to post this message.

What is going on?
