Been trying to log on several times today and yesterday. Took forever before finally getting on. Just wondering if anybody else is having similar problem?
Yes, using Google chrome, quickest fix was to close down browser and reopen it
Yes, lately it's taking longer than usual to get in but not longer than 30 seconds. It usually takes only a few seconds to connect.
Using FireFox.

It has been over a minute to log on and sometimes I finally just log off as my patience runs out. I have closed down the browser on occasion and restarted but to no avail. Bummer!!!
Problem here but I figured it was related to boarder security or possibly the US Gov't shut down .My fax machine also choked and I lost my satellite Dish .
Despite everything I got two real nice Tee shirts in the mail today.:seeya:

It's been frustrating as well here sometimes; both on my laptop using IE and on my Blackberry so it is not my internet connection. Other websites are lightening fast. Too many users now for the server??
I know Colin has told me of issues in the past, but from what I understand, those were resolved. I myself haven't had any problems but will try to ask around to see if anything sticks out! I don't want this forum making people mad!
One solution is to never log out!

I also have had some troubles. Figured it must be Riley's server shutting down in all the snow storms out there in the wild frontier.
No problem here. Good thing because I never know whether the problem is with the computer or me. Where's my 12 inch adjustable wrench?
yup, sometimes have issues here too.
9:05am today and at 7:17pm last night.
Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to www.canadiancorvetteforums.com
also on my phone this morning:
Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding.
not sure if posting the times will help you track this down, doesn't happen with any other site I am using.

7:30 this a.m. google came back with message page cannot be displayed. Something is fubar with the site I am certain. I never had any problems logging on in past. Hope someone can figure it out. I contacted Rogers just to be sure they were not the problem and they said all is fine with system. Just my 2 cents.
Actually Rogers is always the problem, just not in this case 
Got this email from Google:
Over the last 24 hours, Googlebot encountered 1 errors while attempting to access your robots.txt. To ensure that we didn't crawl any pages listed in that file, we postponed our crawl. Your site's overall robots.txt error rate is 100.0%.
Recommended action
If the site error rate is 100%:
Using a web browser, attempt to access http://canadiancorvetteforums.com/robots.txt. If you are able to access it from your browser, then your site may be configured to deny access to googlebot. Check the configuration of your firewall and site to ensure that you are not denying access to googlebot.
If your robots.txt is a static page, verify that your web service has proper permissions to access the file.
If your robots.txt is dynamically generated, verify that the scripts that generate the robots.txt are properly configured and have permission to run. Check the logs for your website to see if your scripts are failing, and if so attempt to diagnose the cause of the failure.
If the site error rate is less than 100%:
Using Webmaster Tools, find a day with a high error rate and examine the logs for your web server for that day. Look for errors accessing robots.txt in the logs for that day and fix the causes of those errors.
The most likely explanation is that your site is overloaded. Contact your hosting provider and discuss reconfiguring your web server or adding more resources to your website.
If your site redirects to another hostname, another possible explanation is that a URL on your site is redirecting to a hostname whose serving of its robots.txt file is exhibiting one or more of these issues.
If someone can decode the nerd talk for me, that would be great but it seems like the little forum is growing and may be overloaded so I'll have to talk to our provider about that. However, we did have 154 users a couple months back without issues so I am not totally convinced this is it. The search continues...and I had trouble logging on last night.

Same here last night. Working like a charm right now!!
Access is still sporadic for me -- tho I've not been denied access, it is slow at times.
I'm checking my security settings to be sure, but usually they don't cause any hangups.

I noticed the southern forum is having issues too! Maybe it's not just us?
Still having trouble. Had to try five times, before it worked. Maybe one of those scammers got in somehow and gave us a bad bug!!!
