Comcast DNS and the 2 DNS listed above all reject the story.news.yahoo.com link

Congrats on the legwork you have done so far, I guess now you know more about name serving than you ever wanted to <g>

Ok, on the XP command shell I "nslookup"ed the IP of story.news.yahoo.com - I get dailynews.yahoo2.akadns.net or 206.190.35.122 which probably means that Yahoo! distributes its content to Akamai for caching. You can try a nslookup on your machine, too:
- If story.news.yahoo.com is resolved to the same IP number as above then we'll have to work from there. You might try a "tracert" with this IP. Here my hops behind the ISP:

  8    23 ms    23 ms    23 ms  as-1-0.bbr2.Frankfurt1.Level3.net [212.187.128.97]

 13   137 ms   112 ms   113 ms  story1.news.vip.re2.yahoo.com [206.190.35.122]

- If you get a different IP you can try to access my version, i.e. 206.190.35.122
