A Quick Favour Please

Could someone tell me if this link is working at their end please. It's coming up dead here, and I'm checking if it's them or me.

    Cheers everyone. That was a weird one. The link worked for me in IE, Opera and Avant. I must have tried 20 times in Firefox without success. I rebooted with no effect, checked all the settings, they were fine.

    In the end, I set the cache level to zero, closed Firefox, opened Firefox, reset the cache level, and this worked. I have got no idea why this happened. It's never happened before.

    Oh well, that's computers for you.

    Fine at my end too. I occasionally have a problem with one minute browsing is fine then another it doesn't work. Usually a reboot works. Think it's something to do with XP then browser in my case.

    The thing that got me was the fact that only one site was affected. Everything else was fine and I could surf as normal. That's why I asked for someone to check for me. I thought they might have been offline.

    Rex, I've just had a similar prob with Firefox today re. my post in "This Site". Links in here were just throwing me up or down the page. sra sugested emptying the cache and restarting Firefox and it worked a treat.

    Thing is.......I empty the cache very regularly. So I'm 99% certain it wasn't too full. Maybe a small bug. These things happen.
