| Can't access from my new computer???
I got a new computer, with XP. I've got IE, Firefox and Google Chrome. In all cases, I can get to forums.ih8mud.com, but most any click from there results in a timeout. WTF?
I haven't had much time for surfing since I got my new job, but I'm totally missing my mud.
This is our old computer, also XP/Firefox on the same connection. |

| Are you running any security software?
Try this:
open a command prompt (Start->Run.) Type "cmd" without the "s and hit ok. In the prompt type "tracert forum.ih8mud.com" without the "s. Hit enter... see what it says.

| Seems like it would fail all the time, but it works for a page or three, then fails. I'll check out traceroute overr on that computer. It works from this one, if a bit slow. | |

| Works great today. Weird.
I had a PM stuck in there for a while. Maybe whatever runs first that redirects you to your unread PMs doesn't agree with the new box? | |
