Maybe someone can tell me what is going on right now?
99% of the internet doesn't work, doesn't load in my browsers.
macnn.com doesn't load but the forums do. Google and BBC sites work but CNN and others are gone. How can some sites still work and nearly everything else not?

You see! Major weirdness, you replied before I posted the topic! As soon as I submitted your reply was there. How can that happen when you need time to think and type?

Maybe DNS poisoning is affecting your ISP's servers.

What is that? I can Google for DNS poisoning but none of the results will load.
I just tried a proxy free app Netshade and was getting every site via a Japanese proxy. Now I'm back to normal connection and most of the internet is still broken.

Yeah, it's probably DNS related. Try pinging your DNS servers (can be found in the TCP/IP properties of the Network preference panel).
You can always click on the 'google cache' link, that shouldn't require new DNS requests (I think?)

It's definitely a HTTP problem. Most HTTP requests are failing or taking a very very very long time to work. FTP, SMTP, POP, RSS, etc are all working.

Do a traceroute to a site that works, and to a few sites that don't work. I'll bet the traces to the non-working sites all go through one server at some point that the working ones don't, and that server happens to be down.

I have pinned the problem down to the router. So the last option was the correct one! 
The router is by a company called Ovis Link. Trust me not worth it

Where are you located? I know some cable companies just switched their backbone connection and told customers to reset their routers.
