Yup, that's normal. Look over to the left a couple of columns, and you'll see "[Reached Destination]geek13.gtghosting.com."

I have no clue what that link is or does,

it's an online tracert (trace route) it counts the hops (routers) that a packet hits on it's trip to the destination...it's the same as going to start > run > cmd > tracert www.geekstogo.com

...and the trace route identifies if the problem is somewhere along the network, or at the server. :tazz:

/me shrugs

Couldn't access with FF or IE.

I'm going to point the server admin this way -- see if he has any ideas or suggestions to diagnose this further.

Yeah! :) Good news! Looks like we have it figured out. :)

Bad news, the fix is being a little stubborn, so it will have to wait until tomorrow.

Many thanks to our server admin extraordinaire (The Butler) for sticking with me tonight and figuring out the problem. :tazz:

Unfortunately the problem appears to have come back. We're investigating the cause and should have it all set soon.

Clicking the link in a "Topic Subscription Reply Notification ( Geeks to Go Forums )" e-mail gives me a server not found each time, but clicking the Retry button gets me right to GTG on first try.

Not sure if you are still interested but i could not log on to GTG for 2 days, till last night. After running CleanUp my problem was solved immediately. After asking around the net most comments seem to be something was wrong with a tracking cookie or the cache!
