Toon Chris Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 When using Firefox, 80% of links through to topics fail with a 'Connection Reset' failure. Also linking to forums form the main home page. Its been doing this for a week or two. I've had to use the hated Microsoft Edge to post this - please don't make me use Edge to browse my most-loved forum Quote
coldel Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Just for reference I just tried 10 different pages on Firefox and worked fine here. Quote
Lexx Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 As said in recent announcement - forum has limited functionality at current time due to a malicious attack. Quote
Toon Chris Posted June 12, 2017 Author Posted June 12, 2017 Just for reference I just tried 10 different pages on Firefox and worked fine here. Not sure if it is connected with the malicious attack but for reference I go from here: http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=viewNewContent&search_app=forums ... and try to get to this topic by clicking on link and get the error.

coldel Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Yep works fine for me in FF - could be a local issue with your computer? Quote
Toon Chris Posted June 12, 2017 Author Posted June 12, 2017 Cleared cookies / cache / kitchen sink. Still no joy <sigh>. I'm on v 53.0.03 which is the latest version. Quote
coldel Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 I would let the guys sort out the macro issues going on right now and then come back to this... Quote
Flashback Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Who'd attack a car forum? Lots of people for social engineering reasons. Not nice but people use information they gather to dupe others, sometime defraud, etc. Here's a good link to the premise of what goes on. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_engineering_(security) Always be careful out there.
