I have a strange thing happening with trying to access this site at the moment. It's been going on for about two weeks, has anybody noticed specific problems?

Right now I'm on my old Mac at my folks place and this is the only machine that will still allow me to access this forum. It's running OS 9 and I'm using Internet Explorer .

On both my mac at home and at work I use OS 10.3 and I have tried accessing using Firefox, Internet Explorer and Netscape and can never log in. It always used to work fine, but after the sirte went down a few weeks back... Nothing.

Does anyone else share this problem?

I am running Tiger at home, which is essentially the same as 10.3, and it seems to run just fine. I am also using Firefox. Have you tried clearing your cache, cookies and all that stuff? If FF isn't working, you could try alternate browsers like Shiira or Flock. You could also try reinstalling FF to see if that'll help. Save your bookmarks though!

Don't know what's causing your problems, but I'm running Tiger/OS X and haven't had any difficulties. Except the same ones everyone else had when the site was down, of course. Doubt seriously it's an OS X issue.

Cheers I can't figure it out either. I've done all you've sugested Except shiira and Flock, not heard of those. The odd thing is it's happening on two seperate macs?! That's whats got me... Oh well thanks, and it's good to know it's just my quirk so at least I know there's an answer there somewhere.

Are you behind a firewall or using a proxy?

Nope none of that Ged. The problem started around the time the site went down. Basically I thought it was still down but on the off chance had a go on this mac here. To my surprise I found it works.

Tomorrow I'll re-install Firefox but what is strange is that I tried it with Safari - which was run for the first time and that also didn't work... I'm just wondering if I should clear out all browser cache's hmmm

Glitch - I think you're right I can't see how it is an OS X problem either, but then I can't explain how it's working here on OS 9?

Anyway thank you both for the replies. I'll have another crack at it tomorrow

FFF.net has been running fine since all hell broke loose awhile back. Using Safari most of the time. Look up Camino, its Mozilla's version of Firefox. I have been using it more and more. Works just like Firefox, only looks a helluva lot better, and with us Mac folk, we cant have just the best computer, we also want the best LOOKING computer.
