Periodic drop of connection to GoDaddy-hosted sites

For the past month or so, I occasionally lose access to  any of my sites hosted at GoDaddy. I can connect to any other site, can ping other sites, etc. I can get to the server via IP, but not URL. And then, just as suddenly, I can pull up the site again. It seems to be happening with increasing frequency (four times today, happening right now). I've switched DNS servers from the Verizon ones to DynDNS to Google's, and no luck (and like I said, I can still go to other sites on the Internet.) When I check with http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ the server is still up and going (testing with the URL, not the IP address). Anyone else experiencing anything similar with GoDaddy? Or have any ideas. I've tried rebooting the router when it happens, but that doesn't resolve it.

#1 Did you trace route to the GoDaddy-hosted site(s)?

#2 If not, please do and show us the results.

This means for example if on Windows XP,

a) Go to Start -> Run.

b) Type in cmd and press enter.

c) In the new window type in tracert google.com and press enter.
