    Interesting. Both dgrin.com and www.dgrin.com still work for me.

    It seems to be happening to some people some of the time but not to others. Might be some problem with DNS servers somewhere. ne_nau.gif

    Has anyone noticed a similar problem with other sites as well?

    Every single link that I clicked on to this forum took me to an entirely different site.
    Only after putting in "digitalgrin.com" did I finally get to the forum.

    This is where I was sent no matter what link within the forums I clicked. This was around 8 PM eastern. Was it the same for others?

    it's been intermittent for me all day. Andy has the OPs people looking into it.

    everyone who uses dgrin.com should try digitalgrin.com

    If it helps... I'm seeing the same page sometimes and I use dgrin.com. Not always, but sometimes. And I'm in central Texas.

    I had to give up on Dgrin last night, getting the same page as Jack'll do reported above.
    To begin with, I couldn't link to other pages from within Dgrin. Then, after clearing caches and using both Safari and Firefox, I couldn't get to the home page at all. I had had intermittent issues in the previous days, but last night it was impenetrable.

    In desperation I e-mailed help@dgrin.com (is there such an address?) to report the issue but the e-mail could not be delivered due to "TCP active open: Failed connect() Error: Connection timed out".

    However, this morning, miraculously, I got straight in!

    It is now getting to be a PITA!

    I spoke too soon. I again lost my ability to use Dgrin but now I'm back, but for how long?

    I know the engineers are looking into this problem, so help is in its way! nod.gif

    There is no such address. You can post in the "requests to moderators" thread.

    Also, I'm no expert, but I would give opendns.com a try, see if it clears up the problem.

    (I've not had the problem.)

    Not sure where this stands but it appears I am having the same problem on my main system. Had to switch to dif system in the house.

    Did a little research and came up with something related to a "nuseek.com" and hijacking DNS servers through? Akamai???

    I am tech ignorant but the problem appears to be pervasive from what I saw when I googled info about this 'nuseek'

    sorry--didn't mean to imply anything negative--I only emailed when I couldn't get on Dgrin at all.
