Website not responding....

[Doug]

Just joined and have a problem. As I start to browse the forum the page dies; I get a message "the website is not responding". Refreshing doesn't work, have to close and start a new session. Strange one, haven't had this before. Any ideas?

Hi @WARMACHINE, the forum is a bit slow at the moment, the tech guys are aware of the problem and are working to get it sorted out as we speak

My problem went away when I loaded Windows 10 and started using the Edge browser.

The last few days I've been experiencing forum down time again. Comes and goes from several times up to constantly when I am using the forum sometimes, and sometimes there are no issues at all. It might lock me out of the forum completely sometimes, might not let me post a reply sometimes, or open a thread, and sometimes I get a pop up that says it is checking the forum server before it allows me to do anything that I am trying to do on the forum.

Error says it's a host problem on esigssa.co.sa, not the trunk or on my end FWIW.

I am getting the same error yesterday and today.

Yip it appears there is a DOS attack of some kind @Spydro. The technical team are aware of it and are taking steps...

Is Explorer still a thing? Thought that went the way of the dodo.

Dont hate IE... If it wasnt for IE we wouldnt be able to download Firefox on a freshly installed OS lol.

Chrome is a piece of crap and only good for its Inspect functionality and cross-device sync. Otherwise its just a memory hogger. Edge (the IE replacement for W10) on the other hand, has been a browser worth using (for me at least)... Only use Firefox when webdevving, otherwise Edge for everyday browsing.
