No freewebs site is loading??

Skirmish · 04-16-2007, 03:42 PM

For some reason no freewebs site will load for me unless I alternate the character encoding and even then it doesn't load fully.

Anyone got any ideas?

It may be your firewall. Try looking for a blocked sites list in your firewall's control panel.

Also check certain Anti-Virus programs. Some programs have site blocking enabled. This is a good feature but freewebs may have been placed there accidently.

Ensure that you do not remove any bad sites, only freewebs.

Thanks guys, I've gone so far as to turn my firewall and anti-virus off but still no luck :( I'm on a wireless network and freewebs won't load on the other computers on the network either.

Have you tried going to the freewebs main site (located at http://www.freewebs.com)?

Also, what browser are you using (e.g. Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera)?

Yep :( And it's funny you asked that, I tried on all 3 lol ah well.

That was a temp suggestion. You should turn both your firewall and anti-virus on since that doesn't look to be the cause of your problem.

This may be a spyware problem. It wouldn't be a bad idea for you to have your computer checked out by our spyware specialists. Read how here.
