    Every since the site got DDoS'd and I got my internet back, I've been having an issue where I can't seem to be able to connect to any part of the website. A few times I was able to make it past 1 or 2 pages but after that it failed. Every time I try to connect, I get this:
    [​IMG]
    This seems to be the only website I've been having problems with since I got my internet back. I've tried get on with my computer, phone, and laptop, but all yield the same results. This might be a problem with just my internet provider, seeing as how they were all connected to the same router (Not at the same time), but this hasn't happened before with my provider so felt that I should run this through just in case. For right now, I have to hotspot my phone in order to type this.

    I'm current using WildBlue satellite services and should be moving at about 12mbps, but I'm pretty sure I'm going less then that.

    If this anything else I could include, do tell.

    Edit: I am using Firefox as by internet browser.(Not on phone, uses to IE, experiences problem a little less then regular pcs)

    (more to be added if required)

    Are you using Firefox? Because my firefox won't let me connect to the site either. I have to use Chrome for the site to work.

    Interesting. 2 firefox users can't connect to the site. I know others here have to use it. So either they've had no problem or have stayed quiet.

    Is your firefox up to date? Check your firewall settings for anything that might drop a connection from everypony.com?

    I am not computers.

    Firefox worked perfectly before the attack. When the site came back, I tried to open it and got a white screen. I'm pretty sure it's up to date.

    I got something like this using chrome.

    Resetting cookies helped.

    Indeed, I'd advise clearing your cache, cookies and temporary internet files for Mozilla.

    I'm on FF 15.0 which is the most recent version. Site's working fine before and after the attack. If all else fails, save your boomarks and reinstall firefox. It might be derpin' :derpe:

    You might want to try clearing your DNS cache. Close out all browsers and open command prompt. Type 'ipconfig /flushdns' and hit enter.
