Is there something wrong with the Island or is it just my hookup? I am constantly getting errors, 404 and 403 errors and messages like

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /login.php on this server."

It is nearly impossible to use the site. Is it just me or is it a real problem at the site?? Happens 3 out of 4 times I hit a hotkey or link. Right now the page is not in HTML, but some sort of hypertext. All the icons are assigned a line and all the graphics have a blue box with a question mark in them.

What gives? Been going on for a few days now.

Happens with me at Hamsexy sometimes but their server is notably slower or whatever. Not noticing anything here.

Not seen anything like that here. The place was slow for a while, but nothing else.

Yeah, the 404 errors are really weird, especially for login.php.. have you scanned your machine for malware lately?

No problems here on any platform--OS X, Winders XP or Linux--using Safari, Chrome or Firefox respectively.

On Edit:

Working fine with Safari on iOS 4.2 too.

I did think the crowd here was getting pretty raucous. I was surprised to see it reopened. :lol:

No problems here. Safari on the iPhone, FireFox and Chrome.

I did get some goofy Malware attempts a few days ago (not from here) that Avast (desktops) and Panda (laptop) caught before anything happened.

DNS caching screws up sometimes, and even "high level" ISP's like Level 3 get goofy. Doing a simple tracert may tell you about external routing problems.

Just for fun, try a different free DNS... http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/

Hello.

All fine and well, except Google creates a profile based on everything you do and uses this to present advertising.
So, if you are planning on taking over the world, and have odd sexual diversions, they may direct you to Republican websites. ;)

Suggested as a temporary fix, and as usual, you've made an errant claim.

What information does Google log when I use the Google Public DNS service? Google Public DNS complies with Google's main privacy policy, which you can view at our Privacy Center (http://www.google.com/intl/en/privacypolicy.html). With Google Public DNS, we collect IP address (only temporarily) and ISP and location information (in permanent logs) for the purpose of making our service faster, better and more secure. Specifically, we use this data to conduct debugging, to analyze abuse phenomena and to improve our prefetching feature. After 24 hours, we erase any IP information. For more information, read the Google Public DNS privacy page (http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/privacy.html). Is any of the information collected stored with my Google account? No. Does Google share the information it collects from the Google Public DNS service with anyone else? No. Is information about my queries to Google Public DNS shared with other Google properties, such as Search, Gmail, ads networks, etc.? No.



Rudy, please use Google DNS. You need to be watched. :mrgreen:

Around here I provide my own DNS.
