This site apparently down...

Post by JayBird »

Hi,

Been trying to access the forums at work over the last 24 hours and i keep getting "Page Cannot be Found" message. Thought the site was just down for a bit. But i tried the site at home and its working perfectly, and has been all the time i thought it was down becuase people have posted during that time!?

That's a bit nuts - could your work's DNS server have gone mad 'cause ours does occasionally and won't let me access our corporate web site...

Maybe,

We have BT ADSL at work, so maybe they are having problems at the moment.

I use PIPEX ADSL at home.

I'll keep trying

Maybe their firewalls blocked the server? I know my schools old firewall used to come up with that exact page, like it couldn't be found, if the IP was blocked.
