• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Also, the preferred method of connecting is hardforum.com (no plural) and hardocp.com with no www for either.
 
FWIW
Lately I've been getting the same, but only when I use AOL.
Regular IE through my cable access doesn't do it.
When I hit the refresh the page will load ok :confused:

rwefresh my memory on the command to do that. It's been too long since I've needed to do that. /dns something, I can't remember.
 
ipconfig/flushdns on most windows boxes.

As for "preferred" names, they are all the same, they lead the same exact place.

AOL uses crappy transparent proxies that don't refresh often. Maybe. Thats my understanding of it.
