Need help from computer geeks

Before i throw my PC out the window, can anyone offer an explanation to this? i've been unable to log on to Pokerstars, Titan or Costadelpoker in the evening (UK time) for the last week (unable to connect to server). If i try first thing in the morning (7am GMT) i get in first time. I can access Full tilt and VC Poker straight away. It isn't a firewall problem (i cant get in when it' disabled), i've played on Pokerstars and Titan for 1 year plus with no previous problem. Ive reinstalled modem and drivers without success. I can surf the web normally. HELP!!!!

I'm not really a geek and probably can't help you but.... Do you have a router ? Perhaps the ports are being blocked that they use....

disable any 3rd party poker programs that are running outside of the poker client one by one and see if there is a conflict with any of them (most likely firewall or a/v)

It's my ISP - I put "tiscali poker connection problem" into google and saw that someone has an identical problem to me (same days, same times). new iSP on way! (and oddly enough, as soon as i typed this, straight into costadel and pokerstars - i may play a site game after all!). Thanks
