Moneysavingexpert timing out on browser....

Hi folks of wisdom....:beer:

I'm posting from work just now because for the last week I've been unable to open Moneysavingexpert forums or the main website from my laptop at home. It just times out when I click on any link from Martin's email or from my favourites or from any Google hit.

What's stopping the site from downloading?!? I've cleared all cookies and history etc.

I use Commodo and Nod32 and run XP......anyone help?

DatabaseError

same problem with other sites? start>run>CMD type ping https://www.moneysavingexpert.com, ping bbc.co.uk tracert moneysavingexpert.com
post all the results. to make like easier (for you) add >c:\detail.txt to to the end, then just cus/paste from the new test files in the root (C:) folder, eg ping https://www.bbc.co.uk >beebping.txt

Thanks Tony...I never thought of the ping thing. I'll try that when I get home in a couple of hours.

It's the ONLY site I can't access (to my knowledge) and I trowl through some sites I can tell you!

Thought I should also mention that Broadband provider is BT. No option on this as work provides it FOC.

maybe worth changing dns addresses to opendns, if you understand ping i guess you'll understand this.

dns addresses? :eek:

I understand ping because I get a problem on one of the PC's at work and the techie dudes ask you to do it over the phone to see if I'm reaching the server through a VPN connection. Problems connecting to Outlook through VPN on one PC only but that's another story....

I have agnitum outpost and every few minutes it will block a 'mse vip hosted at the bunker' which means I cant acces MSE for a few minutes . Absloutely no idea what that address is but it is sent from my computer outwards and im not about to turn off my firewall. That problem has been on two seperate computers in both mozilla and opera (both have agnitum outpost)
