Did Autopuzzles get hijacked?

[metalshapes]

I couldn't get on the site all day yesterday.

There was some page for GoDaddy, with that Danica woman smiling her fake smile at me...


Did everybody have that problrem?


I'm glad I can access the site again...

No fake smile for me today, but for about a week Autopuzzles pages often take 30 seconds to load. When I don't get from my browser an error message like "the server disconnected you withou awarning. That can happens when he is too busy. Please try again later".
Is it the Autopuzzles server, or just me, my browser or my computer? I know it was happening rather often a few months ago.
Anybody is having the same trouble?

I have had a couple of slow loads this week but it has been good overall.

Today I did have a glitch. I will write down the time next time it happens.

[Allemano]

It's not a problem that occurs every time I visit the site. It's more often after checking various posts that suddenly one of these doesn't load at all or that it takes up to a minute till it's done.
I tested each of my installed browsers (Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome). All of them showing the same errors.

I get that one quite often, a least once every session.

[woodinsight]

Had lots of problems a couple of months ago with Danica P appearing unexpectedly.
No problems at the moment.
I use Safari.

Charlie, I notice that those who have the problem seem to be all europeans. We had the same kind of trouble some time ago, adffecting mostly European puzzlers.
I hink that a giant squid is eating the big wire down at the Atlantic Ocean's bottom.

That is as good an explanation as any I have.

Same error here too, occassionally

[Paul Jaray]

Today seems worst than ever...nearly 1 minute to load 1 page....

[Allemano]

Strange..., but today it works fine for me (I'm using Google Chrome today)

While writing down the last comment it took me three attempts to post it finally.
(1. unavailable server 2. empty window. 3. clicked the refresh button!)


Same trouble with this reply...

No... I'm in Tucson.

Getting this page to open took a couple of tries, and the succesfull one took a long time.

I don't know if anyone is having a problem this evening accessing the site.

If I click on my bookmarked www.autopuzzles.com, I get a window saying "web stats not enabled" and with strange instructions how to do this.

After a few tries, I googled www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php and bingo! I was back on the site.

Is someone is playing around with the main access to the site?

Also I should add that I reset Safari earlier and it may be just me who is having the problem.

Main access is not working here too. I get the same message.

[faksta]

I confirm. I was about to close a notebook, but decided to try through the forum page.

[Allemano]

There may be indeed some temporary problems, but don't have definite infos.

Stay tuned!

Front page back online.

The missing posts and the disappearance of the "Who's Online" feature are being investigated.

[Ultra]

I don't know about missing posts.  I do know I am in the process of updating the software and things are going to change in appearance here for a while.
