confusing with "connection failed"

I don't understand what's going on when i try to log in tripod.lycos.co.uk.

What should I do to fix the problem?

Resolving host name www.tripod.lycos.co.uk...



    Connecting to (www.tripod.lycos.co.uk).



    A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.



    Cannot login waiting to retry (30s)...

For me near all *.lycos.* are dead at this time, i only see www.lycos.com alive.
