The first Canuck to score against the Flames? Nope. I wish that were geographically so, then I wouldn't be far from Whistler and I'd get the bike out for some DownHill fun
Shawn is looking to replace me, you look like you may be as good or better Even I am using your links now.
Anyone else notice that the big G is returning error pages for searches in the UK? Also adsense campaigns are not showing. Still it may drive users to other SEs. Ian
No problem here (London), search and AdSense work fine. Have any screenshots? Google Down proof is a sought after thing these days...
Well I've just checked google on Opera, Netscape and Firefox and it searches without any problem whatsoever and adsense displays ok. When I search google using IE i get this error message: Forbidden Your client does not have permission to get URL /search?hl=en&q=welding+entertinment+chesire&btnG=Google+Search&meta= from this server, plus a load of other stuff. Also adsense is not showing on any sites when viewed using IE. Don't want to show a screen grab as it contains IP adresses. Nothing has changed in the last month. It must just be me and it must be IE, but I don't understand what's going on. Ian
It is bizarre... I cannot connect with IE6 (I'm at work) so I've installed Firefox and google works fine!!
No problems for me in au. Adsense is showing fine, G returns expected results.. (even with munged/nonsensical agent string)..
I wonder if they're (speculation) getting heavy on scrapers and the like. Most likely a glitch, but good for some clients, not for others ? Who knows
Still down at this end. It's not a proxy thing either. Perhaps someone is telling me to set Fire Fox as my default browser. It's annoying though how many others, if any, are seeing this problem and how much adsense revenue am I loosing? Or am I just being paranoid. Ian
Perhaps you should try anonymizer[dot]com, take your client out of the equation (at least where google queries are concerned). As for the adsense, well, the only dependancies are (typically) JS and referrer. If it works locally in Firefox, but not in IE, chances are you've nothing to worry about Cheers, JL
Well everything's back to normal this morning, I did nothing and my ISP assures me that there was no problem at their end. So for 48 hours google and IE didn't talk to each other. Google haven't responded to the email that I sent them so what it was we'll probably never know. Cheers A confused Ian
Google.com seems to be down today for me. I haven't been able to access it all day. Anyone else seeing this?
