Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

More information


Its not exactly the end of the world, but can be a bit annoying at times. Just a bit of feedback to the money men
Go into your router, delete the "get dns server dynamically" option and check the "use manaul ones"

put in...

primary = 208.67.222.222
secondary = 208.67.220.220

that should cure your issues from now on

not being funny, but its YOUR problem

I shouldn't have to fuck about with my router as NO other sites disconnect me. End of the day I am sure the owners of the site know what they are doing and can correct their mistakes.

no its your problem most likely a DNS issue hence the opendns servers i suggested, or it could just be a faulty / overheating server in your isp path.

If its PF howcome im not getting those error messages ?

Its been very slow for me lately and sometimes the page wont even load up at all. Its only ever this site thats slow though, dont have a problem with any other sites or anything. Maybe a coincedence though i dont know. Very often takes 30+ seconds to load a page on here though. Just got used to it now so its no biggie.

Hmm, how come there are no other posts about it last month mate?

Yes we have had a few load issues since we upgraded to latest VBull, and another server upgrade planned for next week will sort that.

Sorry if your having big issues at the moment but it seems the majority are not. I would expect some slow downs, but not disconnections.

I would rather not have to moan every other day mate... Im sure its on the radar of one of the issues to sort, along with the extremely slow speeds...
