It could have been any number of things.

The trouble with "is X down" posts is that by the time someone replies the site is usually back up, and was only down briefly due to a glitch.

If you're still not getting it then it might be your ISP having issues or something similar. I fail to see how IE itself would stop you reaching a given site.

It was not with IE. I tried it with firefox and IE. Anyway, it's back up, but the other hand, it seemed like it was on the blink yesterday. As in yesterday morning I could get to it, but couldn't in the afternoon at the time or two I tried it. Then this morning I had to hit refresh a time or two before bringing it up.

Maybe it took a refresh or two to clear your cache or DNS cache.

It's possible there was a glitch with either your ISP or blind cool tech yesterday afternoon. Glitches like that happen from time to time, and I make a policy of not worrying unless a site has been down for several days in a row.

OK. when I posted this topic, it was one of the times that I haven't been to blind cool tech for awhile and wanted to see if they had any updates I wanted. So glad to know it wasn't just me, and that it was nothing more then a glitch.

I can sympathise. It's a nightmare going to a site you've not been to in a while and, argh, getting a this page cannot be displayed or something.

I don't tend to visit sites I don't like wink

Or at least find useful from time to time.

I also don't visit sites I don't find useful from time to time. The more useful a site is to me, the more I visit it. It's that blind cool tech doesn't seem to have a new show all that often, or one I wish to listen to. the MAC and windows ones are some of the ones I listen to.
