Can't get to main page of forums?

Post by NotDadsW41 »

Anyone else having issue getting to the first/main page of the forum?

I keep getting a pop-up window asking what program to use to open the file.

I managed to get here through a link I had previously saved.

I had some issues connecting this morning either getting a 404 error or the apache default screen. At this point everything works.

I've had a few problems connecting for the past week now. But all seems well lately. Good thing, too, as I was beginning to get speed and connectivity flashbacks to the first year of ASV.com...yikes!
