Sorry, I was being slack and abbreviating. It is fordforums.com.au. I don't use a proxy server on any of my machines or connections, (or my mobile) so it does seem a little strange to me..

Anyway, doesn't matter, I'll live with it..

Thanks Cam - that message suggests that you are using a proxy server (whether corporate or ISP provided) but we'd need to know whose proxy to see what it was refusing. The page call is just a standard GET message for page retrieval and I can load the page itself fine.

Cheers
Russ

I get that message randomly as well - mostly on my Telstra Motorola XOOM (Android) but when using a variety of browsers (Chrome, Dolphin, Opera etc). Also had it happen a few times on my desktop.

I just hit back and try again and it works.

just a note:

since the upgrade, the "Remember me" check box seems to have a very short memory.

also, the "arrows" which point to threads one has previously posted on are sporadic and best and seem to be disappearing all together.
