I've asked a friend who isn't on plusnet and he says it's fine for him
Then I found this on reddit
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskUK/comments/42npo1/imgur_loading_very_slowly_with_plusnet/
Edit it's suddenly working fine did somebody at Plusnet plug something back in

This sounds like a DNS server issue, so I would recommend you to change to google DNS.
Or open DNS and make sure you run ipconfig /flushdns under cmd in windows.
Also clear your cache, cookies etc, just to be on the safe side.
Hope this helps.

It's most likely to be a Plusnet IWF filter (proxy) issue.

Issues like this occur, I've had this issue with Virgin in the past.
It got to the point that I could download, upload and play games.
But browsing was broken, quick dns switch and flush.
And all was well.
A proxy filter wouldn't cause this, as it would block http and https in most cases.
You've to understand about data propagation with dns servers but you can google that.
If you're interested.
I tend to always use google dns, so I never get these issues.

Here is a traceroute to TCP port 80 at the time it was working badly, fortunately it had not scrolled off the top of my terminal:
[tt]# traceroute -q 1 -N 1 -T -p 80 imgur.com
traceroute to imgur.com (185.31.19.193), 30 hops max, 52 byte packets

The tun0 in that traceroute is a giveaway sign that it's going through Plusnet's IWF filter, or at least trying to but failing.
Actually, at the moment, it looks like one of the IP addresses goes through the filter and the other doesn't.
