that link works fine for me. 

links still don't work. It looks like they begin to d/l, then after a short while they get interrupted and I get an error message. 

the first error message is now that there's an ActiveX control on the page that cannot be executed due to my security settings (I've that disabled).

Is this some sort of hijack thing? 

It took so damn long to load I may as well have just gone to the site, which I was going to do anyway to check the message boards, and since we only get one item of news around here a month it was probably the most pointless exercise in which I've ever partaken. 

but people want RSS feeds. And it's web 2.0! 

what could be causing the inability to load the News Archive or View All Threads? It still doesn't work for me and I've tried disabling any filter I normally use.

It's not a big issue, but it'd be nice to know what's causing it. 

No progress, since I can't reproduce it, and the error messages one gets from browsers are usually completely worthless.

Is there anyone out there who gets this problem on ONE computer or browser, but not on another? (such as work vs. home, mac vs. pc, opera vs. firefox?)

And for anyone else, if you're getting the bug, can you report in this thread which browser, version, and OS you're using? 

on top of IE 5.5 running Win95 OSR2. This used to work before, but I didn't notice when it stopped working. I recall Mike W reporting issues when my worked at the time. 

noted that I can d/l those pages (with GetRight) and view them locally without any problem. 

something with RSS? I see that e.g. the main page and this page don't have that, but at least the view_all_news page has it. And I believe RSS was a recent change at Func_. 

Using firefox 2.0.0.3, can load both pages while at home, but cannot load them while at uni(using the same laptop and browser). I remember getting a university service error page complaining about some message being too long. Unfortunately I'm at home at the moment so I can't reproduce the error message or remember the exact phrasing. 

the news archive and discussion archive don't have RSS feed links on them. So I don't think that's the cause. 

since your message seems to be about page size, could you try loading the entire GA thread or similar large thread? Just to see if they fail also? 

I like this article because it was written by a smartass:

It is exactly what I experimented: See post #1077

:P 

I have just opened the news archive on my mobile phone. Using opera and umts access :P
I have also tried at home and at work on laptop and pc and on 3 different browsers. Everything works for me. 

... it comes from network administrator access restriction rules: if the loading page is to large according to administrator rules, then you are not allowed to view it... At home I don't have this issue cause there are no restriction...
In anyway I will ask my network administrator to confirm... 

ERROR: Error message number 42

wtf? I get this error when I try to post in MadFox's new map thread 

is it possible your IP address changed between viewing the loading the thread, and submitting your post?

Becuase that's what that error means (i made it sound cryptic to give spambot writers less information.) 

is it possible your IP address changed between viewing the loading the thread, and submitting your post?

I meant to say: is it possible your IP address changed between loading the thread, and submitting your post? 

wow, how that can be? I don't use any hiding IP programs 

I assumed that it wasn't possible unless you were a spambot.

But, maybe somehow your dynamic IP changed and your browser cached the page so when you posted a comment, it was submitting an outdated form (with the wrong IP hash in it.) That shouldn't be possible becuase the pages on this site should never be cached (they are set to expire immediately.)

Does any of this sound possible? Or maybe a web proxy that cached a page when it shouldn't have? Or something?

If this happens much, I guess I'd need to remove the IP address requirement. 

Hasn't worked for me since the change to a new host.

Works in Firefox, but not in IE. The only webpage I attempt to visit that doesn't work...

Errr... 

So why is it a problem that it doesn't work in IE? 

What the hell? Title can be empty?
