if I type
www.subsim.com
into my search bar I get a blank screen. I have to add /index.php to the end.
When I try and click on an article on the 'front page' I get taken to a (somewhat) sexist little cartoon about reporting a dead link (which I've done twice).
But I see no 'notice' of server or hosting problems. Anyone else getting this?

I have this link below bookmarked, why don't you bookmark it and try it.

The situation you have described might indicate the presence of a virus or malware. It might be a good idea to run an anti-virus software scan and, if you have a Windows OS, maybe running the MS Malicious Software Removal Tool...

Same here. About twenty or so years ago, some worker at a site where I was on a project got their PC infected by virus/malware that redirected, at random times, the user to sites other than what they had typed into the URL box; it had apparently come in via an email attachment. The technology was considerably more primitive and vulnerable back then, but Elphaba's problem brought the earlier situation to mind. Its a long shot, but stranger things have happened...

I had a similar problem on my old XP in Firefox and eventually updated it (was about 2 years old), that fixed it. What browser are you using? is this on a PC or Android etc? Might be worth deleting your cookies.:hmmm:

Worth repeating. If your cookies have gone bad, it could give problems loading a page. Cleaning out the cookie jar and getting new cookies might very well solve it.

If I type in www.subsim.com, it takes me straight away to the site. I'm wondering if it might be an Issue with your browser. It seems everyone who has commented is thinking along the same lines.
Try a different browser and see if that helps. If not, we'll try to help you resolve it.

No problems here, and my subsim link always goes through just subsim.com. I like to peruse the articles on the front page.
I have the same issue on both my phones. One Android and one iPhone.
