Internet and NWFA Problems?

[Father of four]

This only happens with NorthwestFirearms.com . I have been experiencing problems when trying to load up NWFA from my favorites or straight from the address bar. It sometimes works like it should but other times it will not load. I get the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." page and then I do my Windows XP Diagnose Connections Problems and it immediately says everything is ok. Also sometimes I will already be logged into NWFA and reading about some topic and if I wait too long It will start acting up again and tries to freeze or logs me off. Anyways while these problems are occuring on NWFA I will check other web pages I have saved in favorites and they are totally fine. Is anyone else having this problem? I don't know where to complain to NWFA management so if a Mod reads this will you PLEASE pass this on? Thanks, Howard
I probably should have posted this in the General section under Help NorthwestFirearms.

It ONLY happens on this particular site.

Thanks for bringing this up. Lately we've been experiencing server problems due to the excessive load (over 60,000 pageviews per day!!). We're working it out with our host now, hopefully they've been resolved

Please let me know if the problems continue. It's probably time to upgrade our hosting again.

Ok thanks. Everythings fine atm.

If problems are going to arise, it is nice to know they are problems of the "we are growing so fast" variety.

That's why the ONLY safe internet browsing is: Firefox with NoScript addon.

Wow that's kind of scary! If anyone else encounters this please do a screen capture if you know how to do one, or write down any information especially the web address it may have diverted him to. Also look in the history file for the forwarded URL.

I also thought my internet was down. Even on my ipod it wont load. It says something like "memory error" on the homepage & when I check my PM's.

That sounds like a XSS or iFrame hack. I only hear about those when there are the random ad server with a poisoned ad, or they site has been hacked. Thought it might also be possible with an image or script link in a signature. I never actually see them myself since I run Firefox with NoScript, Adblock and Ghostery.
