For the last few days I have gotten a lot of connection timeouts trying to connect to CF? Anyone else having this issue or is it just my crappy qwest DSL again. Have not had trouble getting anywhere else. But I have not done a whole lot of research either.

Are you running any chrome or firefox extensions that are s c r i p t based? I had a chrome extension for another forum that was and it kept giving me fits on CF. Removed it and that fixed the problem right away.

Since I don't know, I'm guessing no. Perhaps CF has become self aware, and is rejecting the posts that are not worth reading. If that is the case, then my post per day count is going to go down rapidly.

I am running straight firefox under OSX 10.6.6, no extensions. But I have not had any problems since that day I posted.

I'm running the newest version of Firefox, by the way. I'll go several posts without issue, and then get one that gets a message that the "connection was reset" several times, and I have to page-back and resubmit several times before it posts.

The connection was reset







The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
