access problems

Post by Town »

Hi

I don't know if any of you guys can help me but when ever I try to visit this site using internet explorer on my office machine I get a Cannot find server response. I have removed my history and cookies and temporary files, but all to no avail. I can (and am) accessing through AOL's own browser ???

I still use the steam-driven IE6 mate and only ever experience probs getting in when everyone else does.. eg, the web is slow. No idea what your problem might be I'm afraid as you've already tried the obvious :think:

Hi, The only think I can think is if your work is using a proxy server on IE? If this is the case, it sounds as though the broxy isn't updating its DNS records?

Has this been the case since we moved server in the summer?

No Ben it's only been happening for 4 days. I tried it on one of the demo machines and suffered the same problem even though I was using mozilla Firefox on that one. All these machines go through the same router but I cannot understand that it works through AOL but nothig else. It's got me quite perplexed.

Strange one as there have been no changes (until tonight when we upgraded phpBB). Its also been fine from the office... I'll look into it further, but don't think its something our end (but you never know.) ;-)

It's probably something on my side. I have never come across anything like this before - this computer seems to have taken umbridge with Classic British for some reason.

I will try and reset my router.
