is anyone else finding it slow? not only that but I keep getting google pages telling me 'the page contains no data' or 'page unavailable'

Last night it just froze me out completly my cursor worked but nothing on the forum did.

I thought it maybe an IE7 problem but firefox is the same...

[RLN]

Me too. Same with Opera.

[Nickolas]

Whirring away in Chrome thanks very much.

Oh, upgraded to 10mb on virgin and it IS 10mb too.

back to nornal

Sorry guys - nothing I could do

I noticed it started getting sluggish around 5pm BST and rebooted the server twice in the evening with no improvement.

So therefore it was either a server company bandwidth problem or a internet problem (some other random sites were extremely slow for me last night too).

[Mayfly]

Sorry Wedgy wasn't complaining really more a case of wanting to know others were suffering too

[Wedgy]

Don't worry, feel free to complain - I get just as frustrated as everyone else, especially when I cannot do anything about it

Keep and eye on it over the weekend all If there are any more problems, I will report it Monday morning.

it is fine for me now on my Wii (opera powered)

[Spitfire]

Still slow this morning for me - keep getting 'The connection was refused when attempting to contact www.iconicaircraft.co.uk.' - then suddenly its fine again No pattern.

[Mayfly]

was fine earlier on but playing up again now for me....

[RLN]

So slow, it's un-usable. Opera won't work or Chrome. IE7 & Firefox load sometimes and "no data" messages most of the time.

[Mayfly]

Thanks for the update Wedgy in the message area. I'm sure we all realise its out of your control but I think we're all at a bit of a loss without Iconic

[Gully]

Strange - IA's working fine for me in IE7, but keeps falling over in Safari and dropping out my broadband connection?!

[Wedgy]

Currently its good, but it WILL dip again

[RLN]

Seems to be firing on all cylinders now

[Gaz]

Only hanging for me now, after I press submit.

Way better than it was though

[Mackrick]

Its been playing up for the last half hour.

[Tom.com]

Only just got back on been down for me the whole afternoon

[Mayfly]

it was down for me betwen 8-9 but firing on all cylinders at the present

[Hungry Haggis]

To be honest have not noticed any problems with Iconic at all .Am useing Windows 7 release client and IE8 is running on compatibility fine.Whereas BBC site and a few others like Computer parts ones and a couple of the wifes aromatheripy ones are playing up .

Yep, the logs indicate:

First error was detected at 2009-06-06 19:51:00
Last error was detected at 2009-06-06 20:56:42
Downtime total 1 hour(s) 5 min(s) 42 sec(s).

There is hope that since the server went down, it may have done an auto-reset ... lets keep our fingers crossed

[Mayfly]

well so far it's much better. I've only been thrown out once this morning - perhaps the quality of my posts are getting better

[Wedgy]

Had a response from the server company . . No general issues with their network over the weekend, but they will look into the cluster wher our server resides. Please keep posting if the forums go slow or go down. I hear they went down again for a while just after midnight last night
