The holiday forum started to act up on me a few hours ago on this computer. At first I thought it was the holiday forum having an issue as I could load any other site without problems. I decided to check the problem on my other computer and lo and behold THF was working without an issue. Scratched my head and opened up a session using edge rather than chrome and the problem persisted. restarted computer, checked firewall settings, cleared cache etc; even went as far as clearing the computer’s DNS cache, all to no avail.

I then tried something that I didn’t think would have any chance of working and started a VPN session. Yep, THF is working like a charm. Shut down VPN connection and cannot get through.

Anyone ever run into something like this?

The problem is definitely at my end and only on my main computer. If I’m using a VPN then I’m not experiencing any issues.

Maybe your ip has been blocked for some reason by the hosts of thf.

THF is struggling with IE at the moment, goes good in Edge though.

I regret to say that the Internet has got its way and I have transferred to Edge.

Not noticed any problems.

The only problems I’ve ever had is sometimes you all post faster than I can reload and read.
Other times it is as dead as a dodo.

Maybe we could get our friends with all-cap names except for 1 to post more in the quiet times.
