yeah, through my corporate VPN it's fine, but through my local ISP it
still goes to ACDelco TechConnect.

Router problems. I've been through this before. It's not worth my time
to call anyone about this.

Try a different nameserver. Also (I hate, loath to say this) try
bouncing your machine if it's Windblows. Or at least flush your
browser's cache. But nameserver is your best bet.

OK, get this:

http://toptiergas.com goes to ACDelco's TechConnect

http://www.toptiergas.com goes to Top Tier Gas.

whatever.

There's a screwed up DNS cache in a server somewhere, I'll bet.

I get 69.20.102.218 for both addresses.

They've always been the same in "my world". A world that existed long
before Bill and Paul got together.

Also known as "popping", "flipping", "yo-yo" (although this usually
referred to a machine that kept crashing) and many, many more.
