war Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Hey, Anyone else having problems with the forum being very very slow and super busy. Just today alone I have gotten too many busy messages, at least 20 times: Sorry, the server is too busy to handle your request, please try again in a moment. Sure its just not me. Sure you already know about, but since I don't see a topic about it I started this one. It took me 2 mins. just to make this topic. And while doing so I got the above busy message three times. Time for more bandwdith or something. Or better computer running the forum? Upate: Also, its off and on. And when it is working correctly it seems to be delayed by two secs. and then fast as ****. But that's not offten. Just happened when I edited this post first try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 My friend (Hidea) also has problems connecting to the forum. He always gets the "Gateway Timeout" message and can't access the forum at all. Anyone know why? or maybe how to solve the problem (assuming it's not something on neowin's side)? Also, I have noticed a slowdown in the forums recently, but I'm not sure whether it's something with neowin or my ISP (been actiong up a lot lately).

best_uv_d_best Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 yeah this site gets kinda slow on me pretty often in the last week or so... dunno what to think of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiszmai Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 It's been very very slow for me for the past week, still continuing, ping results intermittently 100% loss one minute and fine the next. All other sites working fine so it's not my ISP. I'm on fast broadband. Neowin has been intermittently slow with packet loss for the past week :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Dorr Veteran Posted January 29, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 29, 2004 It's the MyDOOM virus attempting attacks at the server. It's not that we're on the "hit list" for DDOS'ing, but it's just trying to infect a linux server (silly virus!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
