There are times when this happens. It happens to me too a lot of time. I suspect it to be a slow connection on your/my side, not the forum. It also could be that the forum servers are busy with too many members/non-members....

Nothing sort of this witnessed, no complains from others either..

Forum was down due to a technical glitch of the hosting company 2 days before.

No, many did not have any difficulty accessing it and as one mentioned that SLT is giving you a hard time, then use a proxy setting to have access.
Welcome to the Forum ! Very Happy

The site wouldn't open since last evening and this morning. It opened a couple of hours ago. I also use SLT, don't think its banned as I am back online.

Worldwide Forummotion Forums were down due to a technical issue
by GMNet Yesterday at 2:38 pm

http://forum.srilankaequity.com/t23786-worldwide-forummotion-forums-were-down-due-to-a-technical-issue

Hello,

The problem should be fixed now. A DNS change has caused this problem. Now, the base DNS configuration has been restored. Please clear your cache and cookies and check if this issue is fixed, as it should be.

If it's not, here are some different operations that can help to fix the issue :

Close your browser
Reboot your Internet connection
Clear the DNS cache with an ipconfig/flushdns process (How to do this ?)
If that still doesn't work, save your current DNS info somewhere else and try to change temporarily your DNS for the DNS provided by Google (How to do this ?)

Thank you very much to all of you for your patience

I'm not using a proxy to login to this site and the issues we had previously were corrected. Pls follow GMnet's advice and see..

Please install a newly updated antivirus programme. All main virus guards coming under famous brand names can protect ur pc against DNS changer. Very Happy
