Default HDForums won't load?

For some reason my computer won't load any page from the forum. I have tested other pages extensively and haven't run into this problem anywhere else. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this problem.

I tried to load a picture of the error screen but I still haven't figured out how to do it on my phone yet.

Exactly how are you trying to access the pages?

From your Favorites/Bookmarks or typing the url in?

What about clicking, or copy/paste this link...

I've tried it all. To now include using the link you posted. (Used it from the post notification email) no avenue has worked. Just weird because, as I said earlier, so far it is the only web site not working. Everything else loads just fine. I only posted about it to see if anyone else had had this problem before.

Which browser are you using?

Try this...

Open up Internet Options, either through the Control Panel or in the drop down menu under Tools at top of Internet Explorer window. In Internet Options, click on the Security tab at top, and hi-lite Trusted Sites. Now click the Sites button. That will open a dialog which you can add a site. Paste the URL for HDForums in the "Add a site to this zone" area, then click the Add button beside it. Once that is done, click on Close at bottom of the dialog, and on the first one select OK to close it. You will probably have to close out your browser then re-open it for that to take affect. Now see if you can access HDForums...

If you're using a MAC, I have no idea what you would need to do. Sorry...

Well I tried it. When I hit "add" it tells me that only https:// prefix sites can be added.

Thanks tho

Edit: also I have tried all three. IE, Crome, and FF
