Is there a problem with the hecnet.eu website?
I am getting connection timed out when I try to browse it.

Traceroute from my location goes off into the weeds somewhere in
demon.net. No response to pings either but lots of things don't
respond to pings any more at the best of times.
IIRC HECnet.eu is run off Mark Wickens's AlphaServer
(SLAVE::) and is not always online.

Guilty as charged...

hecnet.eu is served by a squid proxy on my 24/7 box. This was atom but is now a HP MicroServer, but for some configuration reason the squid proxy isn't caching properly at the moment, so it will only forward on requests to the originator, SLAVE, which is the AlphaServer.

It's a good reminder for me to take another look...

Regards.
