Why am I having problems getting to this site?

Post by Hisgirl_2455 »

Okay, at first I thought it was another forum I was on when this problem started, but now it is happening with FG, but not a couple of other forums.

So, I just keep getting messages saying that the page cannot be displayed. I have to google FG and then hunt for another avenue to get into the site, once that avenue has been used, I have to find another. This is happening with one other forum I am on also. It has not happened on regular web pages (non-forum pages).

I have an HP laptop with windows vista, barely two months old. I downloaded firefox at someone elses urging, but that did not help.

I am kind of a dummy about computer workings, so if anyone can walk me through fixing this I would appreciate. I am wondering if it is a setting in my computer somewhere?

I was getting a "server is busy" message when I was home in the middle of the night. I couldn't even use the "contact us" to report it because I got the same message.

try this:

tools

options

load images automatically......click on exceptions

type in address of website

and click allow



that hopefully will work, when you get to fg:



then bookmark it.
