failure to connect to web server message??
« on: June 25, 2011, 10:11:25 PM »
there is a certain Website I look at, that for some reason wont show up anymore all I get is that dumb message, I know they are still up as I get email because I'm on a list.
Any idea how do I get around to get back on the website?

It's possible for the website to be down and the mailing list to be up.  What site, and how long?

I have a certain number that I used to play,( in the pick 4 game) the last four digits of my parents phone number its also a password so forgive me for not saying-anyway, I don't play it (any more , broke & not in CA ) but it came up twice last yr but not straight i.e like 1234 but like 4123 so I didn't miss out much by not playing if it comes in "straight" then I wouldv'e hit like over four grand ... I win every time I don't play ( a dollar) anyway its not of extreme urgency but I do not like it when my pc does crud like this, its bad enough I always have to wait ten minutes to view youtube

The site is broken, it is nothing to do with your PC.  I am unable to get to it either.

Seems to work now. If your numbers were "15, 22, 23, 48 and 55" and you purchased at the San Bruno Shell, you are very much in luck.

Still dead for me from home.  I just opened it up fine remoting to a workstation at my office on a different ISP.  Somewhere along the line there must be some routing or load balancing issues.  Still...  nothing to do with your PC I'm sure.
