I know a few people haven't been able to get on the site at all because it won't load, and a few others are having problems with it running slow.

I've been having issues using Firefox (latest update) with it crashing the program as it starts to load. I've also has my virus software catch a trojan 2 different times while loading the site.

Aaron's Virus Software said:
McAfee has automatically blocked and removed a Trojan.

Anyone else having similar problems? Obviously those of you that can't even get on should speak up ;) :D :hahaha:
 
I have had more than a few members tell me they are having issues logging on. Some are getting the virus messages, others are getting IE error pages.
 
I dont' have a problem getting on. But sometimes it would freeze up on me at work... at home i don't have that problem.
 
OMG Seriously, it took me 24 hours to get it to load again.

I rebooted multiple times, changed security settings, cleaned out history, cache, and cookies...Nothing worked.

It happened to me on Monday but I assumed that was because of the increased traffic due to MMX being closed because I only had one time where it wouldnt load after that and a refresh fixed the problem. But yesterday about 2pm I went to sign in and kept getting IE cannot display the page messages. I thought it would get better as it got later in the evening but it didn't improve and this is the first time I've been on here since yesterday at around 7am. Not sure what the problem is but it's not cool.
 
I haven't had any issues with my laptop, pc, or work computer and I have Mcafee and Trend PC virus protection.
 
I got the IE "cannot display" page too. Haven't been able to get on for a day or so. No viruses or anything, though.
 
occasionally at work i can not get the page to load. i figured the computer was telling me something. like get off my ass and get some work done. lol...


sometimes i can get the page to load with no problem. i keep in mind that while at work, we do not have the best internet service.
 
I have the www.muscleculture.com/forums/index page saved to my favorites and I still had problems.

First time I had issues was Monday when everyone started moving over here. I got "Internet Explorer Cannot display" message. In the bottom left corner it said "waiting for ___ website" for a bit and then kicked me to the cannot display page. It wasn't until 8 or 9pm that I was successful in getting here and joining.

Second time I had an issue was Wednesday (I believe), it gave me the same cannot display page, I hit the refresh, it came up. No big deal.

Then, yesterday, I went to sign in at 2pm, same page again. It continued until 3pm today (Saturday) and, with the exception of sleep, I was trying every 30 minutes or so thinking it might have been due to high traffic volume and it would be fine later in the day. Not the case, the problem continued well into the night, I finally called it quits about 1am.

That's the only message I'm getting. If I type in www.muscleculture.com I get redirected to google asking if I mean another site but giving me the option of www.muscleculture.com/forums/ I've tried all three, they don't work.

I tried changing security setting, rebooting, clearing the history, blah blah and NOTHING worked. I did notice, however, that when I was finally successful this afternoon the site was pretty dead. I really think this has something to do with the massive increase in traffic over the last week. But that's kind of a "Duh, Captain Obvious" kinda thing.

Also, I doubt this will mean much, but I did plenty of browsing on other sites with no problem. I've never had to lower my security settings and I've been on several of these vBulletin type forums. I had no other trouble with the internet, except here, yesterday and on Monday.

Hope that helps, sorry it took me a while to respond to the initial question. :)
 
I went through MuscleSCI to mention this but I thought I'd bring it here as well since I now have access again.

I've tried all I know to try but this is the second time in two weeks that I've been completely locked out for atleast 24 hours. I mentioned this to G4E and he forwarded it to Bud. Here is the screen I get when I type in the link that you guys suggested (same link I was using before when the problem occured).

I am not sure what the deal is but I cannot possibly be the ONLY person who has issues getting this site to load.

Anyway, here are the two print screens I got trying two different links.

One was http://www.muscleculture.com/forums/index.php and the other was http://www.muscleculture.com/forum/index.php (The word "forum" with and without an 's' )

Not sure how this would help but I thought you might like to see that I'm not a total retard and typing in the site address incorrectly.

well Budlite, what is causing this?

Yes, please tell me wth is wrong because I think I just considered taking up knitting if this occurs again. What can I say? I get bored easily and this is NEW HAMPSHIRE, there's not much to do but look at leaves and stare at all the drunk yankees that don't know what a razor is. Seriously man, I can't handle it....
 
I was unable as well. Then I saw AJ's bulletin on myspace saying that the host company was down or something of the sort.
 
Yeah all yesterday i couldn't get on. The page wouldn't even load, just got the "server not found" thing, seems to work fine now though
 
I think there was something going on yesterday because I could not get on musclesci.com either and I am assuming budlite has them on the same server
 
I also had the same problem yesterday...i thought it was my internet at first but i tried another site... i'm glad is up and running today.. :D

I think that's what AJ's bulletin on MS said. I was mid post on SCI when it went down, talk about piss me off. I thought it might just be me until I saw a bulletin from Tyler. Glad it's back up and running.
 
Emily (QueenB) is having the same issue with the site loading again. I'm posting this for her as she can not get on.
