Question Yell.com?

Will a few of you try something for me?

Log onto Yell.com the UK's local search engine - search for United Kingdom businesses, enter "comapny name" of "Aquilla" in scun thorpe, (without the space).

When I do it, alls I get is that they have found one listing, but it refuses to tell me who, where, any numbers addresses etc.

Funnily enough, CoB gets the same in the same town

And Yell.com refuse to acknowledge it can be so, they say it's at MY end

They do rely on Javascript and various div layer swapping etc. Try it on a different browser.

Seems legit, as I just tried again on Firefox with the same results as last night. Tried on IE and worked fine mate.

I find Yell.com pretty rubbish.

Few times I know the name of a company. All I need is the address. Yell.com say's it has no listing, when I know it exists.
