pclinuxos website down?

[ilanesh]

Hi, I try to go to pclos forums and their website now for days but it is never loading.
What to do? This problem was a few weeks ago for more then a week, and now again. this is not my browser, or internet connection, cause every other site opens very fast. Someone knows what is with the pclos site going on?

I had no trouble just now accessing this site:

http://www.pclinuxos.com/

Is that the site that's giving you trouble?

Hi, thanks for your very fast emidete response. i clicked on your link and the same, I use Ubuntu and the firefox browser, maybe i use another browser? I have many many days such a problem, this is strange, cause here i am in seconds on this forum, and all other sites opens in seconds, only not pclos and also not "mypclinuxos". What can this be? I am not sure if Ubuntu has another browser exept firefox, have it only installed yesterday and works out of the box everything, since my pclos installation crashed the day befor yesterday, i have now ubuntu.

That's certainly odd. You can install any number of browsers on Ubuntu. Just for curiosity's sake, I'd first try Opera. It's completely unrelated in code to any other browser you might see in Linux, so if your problem is Firefox-related, it shouldn't be an issue in Opera.

You may be able to install Opera with simply a sudo apt-get install opera command.

I have also installed now Opera Browser on Ubuntu, but the same, no Pclinuxos Website.
Hs this to do with the ubuntu Distro? But this cannot be, cause also this same problem I had when I had installed Pclinuxos on my Laptop, and it also was happen in Windows XP.
Ok, never mind, I am glad i found this forum here.
but How I will know when the new fina pclos distro is ready? So i could maybe dualboot with ubuntu.
Thanks for Help.

Hi ozar, sorry for only now replying, but i even couldn`t get loading the webpage from linux forums anymore, the same problem like pclos web page, now i have reinstalled ubuntu dapper drake server cd, now finally i can get the web page opening. I figured out it was happen after the ubuntu security upgrade. Now I still hve no upgrade, so still all works, i do not know how to enable all web pages after the security update in ubuntu and also from where?
I try also to got to pclos webpage, to see if it now works there too. this is odd all.
Thank you for the link from distrowatch.
Take care.
