I can't pull up the forums on either IE or firefox - but, just for ***** and giggles, I tried the aol browser and it worked. That's how I'm posting now.

Any ideas?

Did you try clearing your cache and cookies?

This, again, today.

I don't remember how I fixed it last time.

Try visiting the IP address. If it works, it might be a DNS issue.

http://67.15.103.196/

Having DNS resolution problems with safehouse and gucomics from my end of the world as well- had to add

67.15.103.196 www.thesafehouse.org

to my Hosts file to get functional access.

Btw - what's gucomics IP?

Using the ip allows me to view the SH, but won't let me log in so that I can post.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

find file, right click it, open in Notepad.

add line under the entry for localhost:

67.15.103.196 www.thesafehouse.org

save file. Close notepad. (Make sure you don't give the file a file extension! It is supposed to just be named "hosts" not hosts.txt or whatever.

Congratulations! You are now your own DNS server for www.thesafehouse.org
and everything works.

Because of this thread, I can still access the safe house while my ISP has the DNS down. I :love the Safehouse.
