BBC Good Food website

mto

Does anyone else have problems accessing the BBC Good Food website http://www.bbcgoodfood.com ?

I have had this problem for a long time (months) and have the same problem with Internet Explorer and Firefox. Nothing loads and it permanently says Transferring data ... but with no result. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Must be your connection or system, loads first time on mine.

Run the excellent and free CCleaner to clear out all the old temp files/cookies etc.

Ok, i've run CCleaner and still the same problem. I should have said it's a problem on all the computers in the house - wireless network - not just mine.

Would running a Hijack This log help?

If might be your ISP blocking the page / server for some reason, unlikely but would explain why no PCs in the house can access it.

You could run hijackthis, wouldn't hurt...

ISP is BT, so would think it unlikely they're blocking the BBC, but you never know. Will try running a Hijack This to see if anything show up.

silly question but I assume you have restarted your router and tried again?

Turn your router off at the mains for at least 30 seconds then turn back on and see what happens if you haven't already done that.

Nothing obvious in hijackthis and resetting the router doesn't help. Hmm, stumped. It would appear though that i'm not the only one having problems... http://www.beta.bt.com/bta/forums/search.jspa?threadID=&q=bbcgoodfood&objID=c3&dateRange=all&numResults=15&rankBy=10001

I've also tried opening a cached page but exactly the same problem with that. Any more ideas anyone?

Try OpenDNS - as it's likely to be a DNS issue, or you could access the net via a public proxy server, but you wouldn't want to do this all the time for security reasons.

I'm on BT and access these pages so not a BT problem. Sorry, I know it's not much help!
