I'm not exactly sure what is going at the moment. The URL to FIREFLYFANS.NET is:

http://www.fireflyfans.net with the "s"

The IP address is: 168.215.229.9

If you cannot get to it using the URL, but can with the IP, it's probably due to a DNS issue local to you, which explains why some users can and others can't.

I'll investigate it more, but at the moment, I'm at a lost as to the cause.

Didn't something like this happen before? That is why I kept this link http://www.fireflyfan.net/main.asp on my favorites. I got here using that.

Yeah, I've got the ...../main.asp one bookmarked. I haven't noticed any problems today.

I just used the email link to your reply. Was able to read it http://www.fireflyfans.net/mthread.asp?b=5&t=37223&m=683244#683244

But got the error message when hit reply back to your message.

I'm using Aol if that helps. Got the same error message a seperate window using IE too.

"The requested URL was not found on this server Not Found AOLserver/3.4.2 on http://errors.aol.com "

Here I am replying on fireflyfan.net

Now I get the error using the reply link too.

http://www.fireflyfans.net/ I get Aol message "Error: Can't Resolve Address Oops! We can't find the webpage you're looking for"

I know what the problem is. It won't get resolved tonight as it is out of my control at the moment. Earliest possible would be tomorrow morning and will likely take a day for everything to propagate to all the other DNS.

I couldn't get here with fireflyfanS, but could with fireflyfan ( no 's').

Don't know if that information helps, but I thought I'd mention it.

thank you haken.
i have had to use the IP address also.

does anyone think that this could
this be related to my
'can't edit my profile' problem?
i have tried:

1. turning off my firewall
2. restarting my pc
3. updating my browser - firefox 3.0.7
4. tried IE7
5. cleared the cache

i have been able to edit my profile in the past.
i have a 6 month old lenovo [IBM] thinkpad that has no problems.

i CAN edit my profile with my friends pc who uses
the same exact router, i.e - 1 foot away.

if ANYONE has any ideas, please let me know.

thanks, shadowcaptain at live.com
