I noticed that when I try to get antyhing on the forum to via forum.saxontheweb.net is now giving a 403 error.... saxontheweb.net/vbulletin based links work fine. Another local fellow is observing the same behavior, so it's not just me (and he's on a different ISP).

So, for example going to the main saxontheweb.net site and clicking on the forums button gives the 403 error (as it is a link via forum.saxontheweb.net) and search results via Google have the same problem.

But (obviously) as long as I use the saxontheweb.net/vbulletin approach everything seems to be dandy.

Regards,

Pete

EDIT: Apparently I need to use the search function more.... for more info, see this thread:

I received an email from awholley today saying that he's having the same problem - access denied with a 403 error. Don't know the details of how he's trying to access the forum.

I have had the same problem all day. I have to google SOTW in order to get on. All of the google results do not work. Some of them give me the access denied. I am going to try to clear SOTW off of my favorites to see if that gets rid of the problem. Or maybe I just ticked someone off???????

I usually use a favorites link and got the 403 message all day. Finally typed the name into google and got another link. Anyway all the ads for Mauriat, Kessler, et al are missing in IE 8.


PS. Must be a problem because there is only 243 people on line at 5:30 PM MST. (thats 12:30 am London time.

So around 250 of us are geek enough to figure out there's always a back way into an Apache server (-:

Same problem here all day...tried several different backdoor approaches until I finally found one that worked. Didn't realize I often I looked in here until I couldn't get in.

Same here, nothing worked. I paced, snorted, said a very mild cuss word, threatened, still nuttin' worked. I got annoyed, too.

I just got in the front door so it must be working now. Didn't even have to break the window.
