It does seem somewhat pointless.

it seems my company must still be pointing to the hacked DNS??

i get this page which reads

IMPORTANT! Photobucket.com problem read here:
Last night Photobucket.com DNS at register.com was hacked by malicious people that are trying to compromise our business!
We are in no way affiliated with such bad deeds and cooperate with photobucket in capturing these individuals.
They have pointed the domain photobucket.com to an account hosted on our systems!
We have blocked that and photobucked techs have restored the domain pointing to its original location!
ALL account information and pictures on photobucket.com are OK, please have patience!
Unfortunately the complete DNS replication usually takes 24-48 hours and during this time caches DNS records might still point to us!
The normal operation of Photobucket is restored and as soon as the replication is complete there should be no further such issues!
We would like to emphasize that we are in now way responsible for what happens with photobucket and all users bumping across our systems!
We are a legitimate web hosting company operating since 2003 and in no way tolerate such hacking attempts!
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at abuse@zettahost.com!
Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Others were working yesterday, and I wasn't.

I thought because I actually pay for membership to photobucket maybe that is why I couldn't view.

But I don't know now since you still can't get access to the site

network i'm on now (with problem) sees photobucket.com as

host photobucket.com
photobucket.com has address 82.197.131.106

the other network where it works fine sees photobucket.com as

host photobucket.com
photobucket.com has address 209.17.66.11
photobucket.com has address 209.17.70.11
photobucket.com has address 209.17.74.21
photobucket.com mail is handled by 10 mail.photobucket.com.

i wonder if i can point to a different, public DNS server..
