Anyone else getting this ?

Sorry but the following website is unavailable at this time:
http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/cg...matebb.cgi?ubb
http://www.zestyfind.com/DNS.php?url...f=10&submit=Go

This just started happening this morning and it is rather annoying

Stormymystic · 11-05-2003, 12:59 PM

never got that page before, but always get my search engine page, when it happens to me, which is on average of 5 times a week

Xen · 11-05-2003, 01:05 PM

Yeah it happens to me occasionally.

Cloudbringer · 11-05-2003, 02:02 PM

Haven't seen that particular one. I sometimes get the "page cannot be found" msg, though not lately.

Elif Godson · 11-05-2003, 02:11 PM

yeah, it is a boggle to me, just started happening this morning :/ I downloaded ad aware and did a scan of my pc as well and found nothing that may relate to this.

Zestyfind... According to Network Associates, it's adware. Here's a link to their page on it.

Remember to do both Spybot and AdAware. The two together are potent.

nice, I do remember getting a pop up with this but I canceled on all of them, or so I thought. Thanks [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

That's only happened when Z accidentally banned me. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

That has nothing to do with you being banned by accident, it's spyware or something else. Look at the URL itself, it's not ironworksforum directly, it's another spammer website url before ours.

the ONLY URL for IW is www.ironworksforum.com

That spam is not coming from us at all.

I think this is the fourth thread I have replied to talking of problems like this. What exactly is it? Server overload? I still get it at least once a day too (the page cannot be found) and I think everything else is a variation of the same problem.
