    503 page error when accessing GN

    Ok..maybe over the past few days some of you have been experiencing the HTTP 503 error when accessing GN. Thats my handywork. :-)
    Sorry about that. I'm using a piece of software that helps auto-ban known bots and other bad IP's. When doing a search on GN some folks are blocked because the software "thought" you were doing a PHP hack attempt. I'm working with the configuration of that piece of software so it doesnt happen. At this time I have disabled that software until I get that part fixed.

    Once its re-enabled, you shouldnt have issues.

    Alex at BartonekDragRacing dot com is where you'd email me once I re-enable it if you have issues. Make sure you include your IP address when you have the 503 error.

    going to re-enable the Spam blocking software. Might be painful to some folks. I need to see what gets blocked and adjust accordingly.

    While no one ever listens to me,

    LOL. I'm sure you werent hacking. The software "checks" to see what is in the url and if it looks like a PHP hacking attempt, it'll ban your IP. The problem is, what was sent in the URL from what I saw was legitimate stuff and was misinterpreted as a hack attempt. Its been running for a few days so now I'm going to look at the logs to see how its working.

    It got me tonight. Funny thing is I was able to get in via VPN. So, can I guess my real IP has been flagged?

    I've been getting that message too, but only when I try accessing the Humidor forum. Odd?

    Its because of the ** asterisks.. I changed the way the software was evaluating link requests. You should be fine now.
