Free Republic Will Not Load on PC just MAC

Posted on 06/21/2010 10:36:47 AM PDT by honestabe010

Is anyone else having a problem getting on Free Republic or know why Free Republic will not load on my PC. I can only get to the website on my MAC. Everything other website working fine on my PC. Anyone who is experiencing difficulty is probably not able to get on to respond so this may be futile. But if anyone has an idea let know.

I have Foxfire and last night and this morning FR was having trouble loading threads, but it seems to be better as of now.

Another suggestion: you may need to clear your DNS cache. DNS is the service that translates the name (freerepublic.com) into a number (209.157.64.200). Do this:

Start->Run...

type: cmd and press Enter.

You got the black little box, right?

type: ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.

You should receive a response like:

Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

You should be good.

Well, I don’t know what the problem was, but I had been unable to access FR on my work PC for several hours. I was able to pull it up on my cell phone, however.

On the work computer, I took the suggestion of some on my thread and cleared my cache with no result. Then I shut it down and restarted, and lo and behold . . .

Dropped this on Jelly's site - try it:

Somethings I've found that help, even if you use other than Infernal Exploder:

I use Firefox for most and have it set so that it flushes everything in addition to those above when I close the browser. Be aware, if you have more than one window open, everything stays until it is fully closed.

Happy FReeping! :)
