Solid State Guitar

[Enzo]

I know I see a few of you from here over there at Solid State Guitar Amp Forum | DIY Guitar Amplifiers - Index, but it has been offline or something now for at least a day. Anyone know anything about their situation? Fahey maybe?

I have been over there a bunch reading while I have been mixing a song all day today. Just checked into the site a minute ago... I did notice that there was a redirect link in my recently viewed web page list. That is strange since last week all the bots and ad-morons were having a field day! Perhaps your browser got stuck on a redirect page that was there?? I just clicked the link you posted went straight to the site just now.

I've looked at it a couple times today, no problem. Some new posts tonight, I posted before lunch and uploaded a schematic, no issues.
Maybe you have a corrupted cookie or something?

COuld be, all I get is this:
http://www.ssguitar.com/cgi-bin/redirect.ha

And clicking the back to main page link just puts it back up.

And my first post link does it too..

If you don;t see what I see if is a big 404 message.

I'll clear my cookies then. I know I have to do that now and then, but it blanks a number of my log-in thingies, and I have to re-enter my passwords etc. Too much work for an old man, y'know?

Sure enough, clear my cookies and problem gone. I never saw that particular hangup before.

Run 'Disk Cleanup'.
Your passwords should be retained while the cookies will be cleared.
On Windows 7 you will find it in 'Administrative Tools'.

OK, I found administrative tools, it was tucked into control panel, under systems and security. I might try that next time I want to clear cookies. Usually my cookie clearing is done with a menu item in the browser.

Apparently my computer defrags itself every week, all by itself. As far as I can tell, it hasn;t found much in the way of frags.

Don't flush *all* your cookies together.
Most browsers allow you to "edit cookies" or some way to selectively remove them, I do that all the time.
A window or list opens, I start selecting and deleting a bunch of them, except, say, those from known places such as SSGuitar, MEF, Facebook, DIYAudio, etc. plus , say, Mail accounts, precisely to avoid reentering user names and passwords.

*OR*, in that particular case, you would kave killed the SS Guitar cookies *only*.

Power out the last few days.

I just dump the cookies. I hate fucking around with the computer, so leafing through pages of cookies trying to figure out what they are is like getting a root canal. I donb;t like to re-enter my password to the forum here and there, but I accept it as part of the price.

I'm glad to see you back here, East Lansing was on the national news because of the power line probelms.

Hope everything is up and running again.

Shop in back on, home is out for three more days. I am leaving town tonight until tuesday, so I hope they get it done by then.
