Can't access certain sites

I have two computers (one WinXP, one Mac) on a home LAN, with a router
and DSL
access thru SBC to the internet. Using Firefox or IE6, I can access
most internet sites
without a problem. However there are a few sites (www.craigslist.org)
which I cannot
access. For these sites I get a "site unaccessible" or a timeout. Also,
I can't get a
ping response or do tracert to these sites.

I can't imagine what would block access to sites selectively,
particularly since the
problem is the same on two completely different computers. Anyone got
ant ideas?
Is this a problem with my ISP?
