New IP Range Issues

Verizon recently added a new IP range, 173.71.xx.xx, sometime in late October 08 that since deployed has stopped me from getting to certain public web sites.  I have several friends and co-workers with verizon and those with IP ranges other than 173.71.xx.xx are not having issues but two of my neighbors with the 173.71.xx.xx range are experiencing the same issues.  I have contacted verizon tech support several times and their explanation has been that the sites are blocked by my firewall, the sites I can not reach are blocking the blocking the new ip range. 

My thought is that the routing tables have not been fully updated for this new range.  I am open to any suggestions. This has been going on for over two weeks and its extremly frustrating.  One of the sites being blocked is my companies public web site and outlook web access sites.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
