Posted on 11/20/2001 6:57:58 PM PST by tutstar

I can't get to Foxnews.com, I get a message saying "Forbidden

Anyone else unable to get to the site?

I haven't tried, was watching Fox news, and they had Susan Estrich (sp?) on. changed the channel immedieately . Between Jerry Rivers and this bimbo I figure fox has decided to become cnn and so I'll restrict my watching.

It means it knows the way to San Jose... but then gets lost; perhaps in a garlic field near Gilroy, but I can't be certain.

Or put another way...

OK, what does that mean?

Since people can ping it, but can't get a connect, or get a reject, there are several things that can be happening. One, a denial of service attack to port 80, or the server daemon locked up. Or the router/firewall was having a problem, or there was too much traffic.

Just my $0.02

Lately, I have seen many routes fail. I'm not sure what Level3.net is up to, but they have been the dead spot everytime. The problems are usually corrected within 20 minutes or so.

Got the same message you did using both Internet Explorer and Netscape. I kept trying and finally got through using IE. Netscape still not connecting. Try again.
