It works OK over here on this side of the planet.

I think a few of us here have forgotten where we started out, by this I mean, remember back in the days of 56k modems when it used to take AGES to get anything loaded on a web-page, even longer if that page actually had images (as small as they were back then).

This fault has nothing to do with Java, I might add and I find it strange how the chat indicator has been disabled, when it has nothing to do with the actual fault, which is more than likely an overloaded server, that is serving more than this particular site.

Personally, if the current server cannot "cut the mustard", it is surely time we moved to something more reliable.

To those people that say they had to log in again, the simple solution is to reset the cookies in your web browser, beit IE, Firefox or whatever you use.

Bill,
Don't get me wrong, I am not at all having a go at you or any of our members here, but it seems to me that some people are falling into the traps of the Generation Y folks that get all bent out of shape when things don't happen INSTANTLY!

Mike,

Thanks for the support, but there is definitely a problem. It comes and goes, so it may not be obvious to everyone.

There have been far too many times recently where I have seen it take 30 sec for a reply to show up, or not at all. Sometimes I can't even log in, it just times out.

I don't see anyone here as complaining, I asked for input, it's something I need to know. I agree the java wasn't the problem, but just forgot to put it back. The login issue was because the software was upgraded.

It looks like spammers have hacked in several times, over the past few months, Files get changed, and I've gotten no answers from these hosting people, I have the date and exact time, but they won't tell me what is in the logs. I think AOL has the mail server blacklisted, most likely because some other account on the server is sending out spam. From what I hear this Hosting company has many people jumping ship.

It's a definite, we are moving, already paid a year in advance, just waiting on the new company to get things set up.

Bill

We're at our new home!

As you may see, some issues exist, like no left column, no 'Active Topics' list, and show users posts seems to produce an error.

I'll be trying to resolve them as soon as I can.

Please... let me know if you spot , or have any other issues.

Bill

Seems like you fixed the speed problem. It is moving right along.

Looks good, runs good, looks like you fixed it!

well it looks good to me, but whadda i know?

and what's this generation Y thing? i thought we were still on X ? what happens when we run outta letters?

i'll be hiding under my bed....hold my calls please

~S~

I haven't had any real problems but it scared me that it came up so fast. Thanks Mike for all your hard work on the problems and the whole website in general

It does seem much faster, I'm glad for that.

FYI, I'll be shutting down in a few minutes soon to do something, should only be a few minutes ....

Bill

Is anybody else getting a request to run an application from Electrical-contractor.net every time they click on a topic since the fix? I am on the latest Firefox version if that makes a difference.

Thanks

I was trying some different settings on and off earlier that may have had some effect, I'm not sure, but I'm done with that now.

Right now I'm using the latest FF and see no problems. Are you still seeing that? How about if you close the browser and reopen?

PS. Is anyone else seeing any problems with FireFox (or other Browsers)?
