OT(kinda): Anyone having trouble with the Ubi forums?

What the ... is going on over there? A few days ago I couldnt post, but now I cant even read posts, only get error messages. Am I the only one?

Your not alone, it comes and goes. One time it will work and then the next time error messages.

The internet has been destabilized over the whole of Norway, i think its due to the bad storm on Vestlandet. Maybe thats the reason.. I have had severe trouble uploading movies to youtube, due to this..

Looks like an intermittent fault from my end stabiz

It's obviously me... whereever and whenever I start visiting a new webpage or forums, they start to lag, bug, go down for a few days... And the users usually report "That has never occured before!". A bit sad, but try to stand in my shoes — what can I do about it? Should I cut myself off the internet or only visit sites I make and mantain?

[joke, of course

]

By the way SubSim forum, fortunately still working, is much better in my humble opinion. The only thing that makes me come back to Ubi SH3 forum is their marvellous screenshot competition. Really good pieces of art there.

No folks posting from North America have had trouble too, or from Central Europe (me).

Not quite true - I hadn't been able to read Ubi forums for about one day, now it works for me though. Location: Warsaw, Poland.

AvM, I had the lag problems on websites awhile ago the same as you are having now. The reason I found was ZoneAlarm with Antivirus being installed. I believe there was a conflict with it and my AVG Free antivirus even tho ZA's antivirus was turned off. I've deleted ZA with Antivirus and am not having anymore lag problems and my computer is running faster too. It just makes me mad that I paid for this and can't use it. I'm now back to the Windows Firewall and all is well. I might try the ZoneAlarm free verion again one day, as I had no problems with that. I also might add that I'm running a router with it's firewall running and had no conflicts until ZA@Antivirus was installed.

Stabiz, I had a problem that the site would never update so i could never see new posts without deleting a thread i was watching. Tryed everything clean up my cookies and my system still no joy so i D/L firefox on the off chance that might work. I was pleased as punch that it works great with firefox.

stabiz · 01-16-07, 03:36 PM

Yeah, but I have always been using firefox, IE is utter crap.
