ACCESS FORBIDDEN
« on: October 09, 2003, 23:48 »
i'm suddenly being told off by big brother for trying to access a frequently visited site,one that i would be happy for any ageing relative to visit, anyone know why

grrrrrrrrr, did a screen shot as a jpeg but cant get it to attach so i'll print the text of it.

"ERROR 403 : FORBIDDEN

the server understood the request but is refusing to fulfill it.  authorisation will not help and the request SHOULD NOT be repeated."

Are you sure the servers not just down Dave ?
I know it shouldnt say forbidden if its that but I have come across that before and tried later and got in ok  :)

If the site is one that safe for your granny to see why dont you post the link to PC-Pals own granny and get her to check it out, she will be in bed now but shes usually up early stirring her cauldron in Cardiff before she sets off to work  ;D ;D ;D

ok sandra its bigjugs.com, nah only joking its www.iopr.org.uk which is a site for paranormal discussions...eeeeek.  it was fine this evening at around 7pm ish but i just tried it at 11pm and i'm not allowed in even though i'm over 18 and i've got a note from my mum to prove it. i'm sure it is due to the server being down and if you've seen this before, then thats good enough for me.   :P

Looks to me as if they have pulled the plug on the site Dave.

"site under construction now", they should take some tips from pcp and let people know when things are about to happen.   ;)

Well, being a psychic forum, they probably assumed everyone would already know!   ;D ;D

I know this is 404, not 403 but is this what michelle meant?
