+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted January 13, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted January 13, 2009 The last hour or so it has taken me as long as 1.5 minutes to connect to the forum. Are we having problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleaf Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Same here and the site is rendering very strangely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted January 13, 2009 Author Subscriber² Share Posted January 13, 2009 Yes but once I do connect it seems to work fine. Posting takes some time though. I cleared out all of my cookies and did the CNTRL-F5 thing but it did not help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barkerja Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I saw some slowness earlier (during peak hours), server was probably just overloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dane Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I don't know if this is related but when I am on the main page, I get the error page that comes up when the site goes down telling you to goto the IRC, I refresh and it goes away. I click on a link to go else where on Neowin, and I get the same error, refresh and back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Michael Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Just wanted to add that I am getting a few IPS Driver errors as well, just within the last 5 minutes. I even had one in the recent forum activity area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Gil Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I don't know if this is related but when I am on the main page, I get the error page that comes up when the site goes down telling you to goto the IRC, I refresh and it goes away. I click on a link to go else where on Neowin, and I get the same error, refresh and back to normal. Been having that behavior intermittently since yesterday, both front page and forums. It tells me there's been a database error, and after a few refreshes the page eventually loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamz Veteran Posted January 16, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 16, 2009 i use k-meleon 1.5.2 and i've been having problems as well. usually i can't load pages (or it takes an extremely long time for them to load), network timeout errors, ips driver errors. this makes it almost impossible to browse neowin. when i try to browse with internet explorer, pages freeze for 5-10 seconds or so. i can see from the task manager that the cpu usage jumps up to 50%.

xpgeek Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Apologize in advance for bumping an old thread if I shouldn't have, its not that old. Last few days, about a week or more even maybe, browsing Neowin forums has been a struggle. It seems fine and super fast bout 70% of the time, but then I just get pages that take foreverrrr to load, load all messed up with no formatting if they do, or just get this timeout error, constantlyyyyyyyyyyy. Connection Interrupted The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again. I've tried adjusting different stuff in Firefox, no pipelining, ipv6 on and off, no adjusting of connection limits, and just using another browser entirely, Google Chrome (official version not the dev version) and IE8 (that ships in Win7 beta). Having exact same problem in every browser no matter what I do. Before say check firewall/network settings, I have, and, Neowin is the ONLY site I have this problem with. Its becoming reallyyyy irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appzalien Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I've had problems with the site for some time now but I blamed it on my browser (Maxthon) what happens is it takes several seconds for a page to load but after it does it freezes there and my browser is completely usless until it lets go (usually 20 to 30 seconds if I don't click on things longer if I do). The only other places I see this type of thing are sites with very aggressive ads that try and force their way thru the popup stopper or something. If when the page is frozen, if I click too much the browser becomes completely unresponsive and will not come out of it. I suspect that either the site is trying to show ads that my browser fights with or the site might be infected with malware. There are some really sneaky and troublesome site infections floating around. Within the same page, like editing this post, theres no problem it just happens when changing from page to page or opening the site to log in.

jelli Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I am still suffering from excruciatingly long load times about 70% of the time, sometimes the recent forum activity box doesn't load at all and other pages will load with what seems like no formatting from the CSS. Starting to wonder if something is up with Windows 7 or Firefox :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is probably due to heavy traffic on the servers, but that is just a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
