Title: Problems with the forum and Opera?
Post by: Medic82 on March 01, 2010, 08:32:59 PM
I can’t get aces to the forum when I am using Opera. No problem with IE it’s just with Opera. Any suggestions to what might be the problem?

some help:
I don't run Windows as my primary operating system, Bill Gates and co are more than rich enough without my support. I run Ubuntu, less problematic, and it's free!

I run a virtual operating system inside my main OS, it's made by Sun (www.virtualbox.org)

Inside that virtual OS, I have a Windows XP setup, with all the aforementioned browsers installed. The multiple IEs via: http://tredosoft.com/Multiple_IE

But why can I get the forum up on the laptop and not on the stationary?
They both are hooked up to through the same router. I just tried the main page and SOSAK and that went smooth but I’m still having issues with getting on the forum…….ARGH!!!!

Will try the browser catch

All I got to say is, I use Opera for EVERYTHING and don't have issues with the forums or other sites. Wonder why it's giving you such a hassle....

But it's not only Opera now, it's IE and Firefox and it's only on the stationary......I just can't figure out why.....

Sounds like the old IP address where the websites used to be is cached somewhere on your desktop.

what OS are you using?

Win7. I did a clean install of Win7 on the stationary on Friday and from the beginning I couldn’t get the forum up with Opera so I used IE. Butt now nothing works for me, can’t get it up in IE, Opera or Firefox. There where a short period I was on the forum with the desktop on Saturday but now it’s completely gone.

I had the main page, SOSAK and EDC source up earlier while the forum was off limits, but now none of the sites will up.

The is also google DNS (http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/), that tends to be the fastest.
