  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Navy Chief, I've been seeing that same erroneous Flightsim.com first page for two days now. Even when I managed to log in, I stll got the garbage page! Tried with Firefox in both Windows XP and Windows 7 ... no go.
 
Works fine for me. That looks more like slowness to the point where some of the web page files are not loading correctly, not necessarily hacked.
 
Starting to think you're right

Hi there,

I think there's definitely something wrong there, too - something to do with security certificates, I am led to believe. I've been battling to access the website for about two months. The only browser that works for me is Tor - but beware, this browser can also take you to places you may not want to go, so use wisely and with utmost discretion.

I am on ATT DSL using an Older but new Windows XP Rig.

No problems for me using Opera, have uploaded two model aircraft without trouble & over 100 downloads each so far!
