[ryr8828]

For those of you who have problems accessing the site, try this:

Go to your start menu. Click on My Computer. Open.
Click on Local Disk (usually C) Open.
Click on WINDOWS. Open
Click on System 32. Open.
Click on Drivers. Open.
Click on etc. Open.
Right click on hosts file. Open in notepad.

At the bottom of the other text, type this in (or copy/paste):
75.126.174.248 www.thepartisanpatriot.com (http://www.thepartisanpatriot.com/forums/../)

Click on File in Notepad and click on save. Close out all windows.

Now go to start menu, All Programs, Accessories, and click on command prompt.
Type in (or copy/paste) ipconfig /flushdns
Hit enter.
Close the command prompt after you get the message that it has successfully flushed the DNS resolver cache.

Now clear your browsing history, cookies, and cache.

You should be good to go.

Ryr, do you expect this to clear up? I am unable to make the change to the host file at work, so therefore the site is still all screwy for me.

I would hope your isp would eventually resolve the name.

Yesterday was all gravy, but now the site index is acting screwy again.

Opposite for me.

[Nixon's Head]

Opposite for me.The problem for me is the links that have the www. in front of them.

Yeah, yesterdqay that was a problem for me, I'd have to yank the www's out. Today my PC seems happy with them.

Problems today, after being fine yesterday.

Access in the morning seems totally random. I tried the multi-step process outlined by Ryr yesterday, which got me in. Today, after entering passwords at both S-B's and here (eventually) I had the same problem logging onto PP.

I hit the refresh button over and over like a rat stepping on the pellet lever hoping to be rewarded.

[ryr8828]

I made some changes at GoDaddy to hopefully help you people out who are having problems.
They may cause more problems before they fix existing ones.

I'm finally back. For 10 days I was unable to access this site even though I did what Ryr told me to do to regain access. Sometimes, when computers try to hdelp, they just FUBAR things really badly.

I hope I don't jinx anything, but the site has been working fabulously lately. Better than it's ever been.

I didn't even realize it, but you're right. I haven't had to do any of the www. crap for a couple days, at least.
