Hi there,
Was off for a couple of weeks on a motorcycle tour and now that I'm back, I can no longer access the World from Europe (Switzerland). I am able to write this because I am currently logged into a US-based VPN. Other VPNs located outside the US don't work either... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) I can't stay on this all the time because I need to be 'local' for a bunch of other stuff. This has been going on for several days now. The message I get is: 403 Forbidden Access is Denied You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied I know we've been having various kinds of DDoS attacks recently but something on defense changed in the last couple of weeks and legitimate (paid) users (me in any case) are now being screened out. HELP! @SirAndy |

SirAndy made it clear in the DDoS thread: attacks were coming via various VPN sites so he's disabled their access to 914World.
You'll need to disable that VPN to access here (or change to another VPN site). EDIT: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=3268965 |
