Cheers for popping in & any help offered.

I cannot access one of my regular MX5 Forums :confused:

Tried
CCleaner.
Clearing Cache
Clearing DNS via Promt.
Used 3 different Browsers even downloading Opera.
Tried IE no add ons.
I can't even get on the site via a cleared Google search link. :confused:
Run Ad Aware.
Hijack this & cleared it.

I am Confuse. :confused:

What gives & what's the fix, Am sure it's staring me in the face. :p

HELP !!! :D
 
well, its down for me too here (on BT)
In these instancy usually the issue is a DNS related problem. the easiest way to work around it is to update your local hosts file with the the ip address of the server (rather than your server having to do a DNS lookup for it)

Get a user than can see the site to ping the hostname and give you the IP of the server it resides on,

Then add this into your hosts file.


If any DNS / Domain changes are made, it can take up to 72Hrs for the changes to take effect (while DNS is replicated to other DNS Servers)

It would be interested if your lookup (domain to IP) is different to that of other users thats claiming it is ok.
 
Thanks for checking guys, I'll just sit it out & wait then. Annoying as I want to post pics of the meet we went to on Saturday, typical. :p
