Website problems?

Profile picture for user AlanG

Are others having problems getting the site to load?  I can only access it on my Android devices.  None of the three PC browsers will load.  The home page appears for a couple of seconds and then goes away and I just have a pop up as for on line courses.  Android App Chrome works ok..

Interested if others are having problems.  This just started yesterday

PC access is working fine for me. I use adblocker (and I sent a check to Floyd for compensation) which may or may not be helping me. I also run Malwarebytes and Norton Antivirus concurrently. They have done an excellent job of filtering out the bad stuff.

If I go into a page other than the home page through Google, I can get on OK and I'm on Chrome right now typing this response.  If I try Home Page access, it doesn't work.  I deleted the cookies in Firefox but that didn't do any good.  I have pop blocking enabled on all three PC Browsers.  Computer is virus free.  I hope Floyd can check into this as it's pretty annoying.

I've had a couple similar reports recently. I haven't been able to figure out what is going on or reproduce it for myself.

All reports have been from folks on PCs in the US. Whether that is coincidental and whether it is because of PC-based malware or a targeted ad running in one of my ad networks, I'm not clear. I've tried testing in vanilla IE through BrowserStack, which I believe is US based, and not been able to see anything like that. So... I'm not sure what to say or recommend. I never knowingly have opted in to any full-screen or content overlaying ads. 

Amy here...emailed you a few days ago regarding the same.

If it helps, my issue was with chrome, not IE. I reinstalled chrome and everything seems to be fine now.  Running Windows 10, 64bit.  My issue was only with your site. I was able to navigate other sites normally.  Not sure if that's helpful.  I know how hard it is to track stuff like this down and of course it's possible it's entirely unrelated to your site.

I've had problems staying logged on.  I normally have to switch the ad blocker to block 3rd party while I check in.  But I've had to log in several times.  I suspect something is amiss when "Anonymous" shows up in my Tracking list. (after March 29)  Which appeared about the same time.  Overnight, another appearance.  

I don't always get photos and now getting only partial threads some of them disappearing while scrolling up and down the page.  Using Safari.  Have a weak connection that is slow so not too surprised.   

I go to this site, it doesn't block me, just gives a warning. this is fairly new. photos in a thread take ages to load, and sometimes it all crashes. I love this site but now open with Adblock as I was being swamped with ads. I am using an Ipad most of the time.

I JUST signed up literally minutes ago and I'm having this problem coming from an Apple computer. Certificate warning upon login, explaining how my information is at risk, and a weird popup at the main page that doesn't allow me to navigate back.
