Problem getting on Forum via IE

**Chimps Childminding** · 05-10-2012, 09:25 PM

Any one else having a problem getting on the Forum via Internet Explorer? Been on and off it all day today but tried getting on earlier and keep getting a message up saying:

Default web page - if you have reached this page by mistake please contact the website owner - webmaster@childmindingforum.co.uk

It may be possible to restore access to this site by following these instructions for clearing your dns cache.

Don't know why I can get on via Firefox but not IE - not sure about following link to clear dns cache when I haven't got a clue what I am actually on !!!!

**silvermist** · 05-10-2012, 09:57 PM

The adverts have always been there in exactly the same places as they always were - nothing has changed except they might be different ads because Google changes them occasionally.

Maybe you were used to seeing one lot and kind of glossed over them. Now some of them are different and catching your eye??

Dunno why its not working!! But as long as I can get on SOMEHOW I don't suppose it matters how

I had to get on by following link on MM page again today. As for the ads, Sarah you are probably right, funny though how Id not took much notice before lol x

so it won't work if you type www.childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum into the browser?

**silvermist** · 06-10-2012, 04:43 PM

Hi Pauline, nope I tried that. I have to google the forum then get on through childminding help which takes me to the morton michel page then I have to click on link to forum. Very odd x

How strange, so if you go to childminding help and click the forum link at the top on the right (the new logo) doesn't that work either?

I think Richard's techie guys perhaps need to know about this. I will pass it on.

**silvermist** · 06-10-2012, 05:54 PM

Yes I can click on new logo from childminding help, i hadnt tried that, but i cant get onto it from google search, just comes up default page. Thanks pauline xx

**Richard** · 06-10-2012, 07:03 PM

Please could you let me know which Google search you are doing to find the forum? What are the keywords you are typing into Google and what is the website address that Google shows?

The correct web address for the forum us www.childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum

Richard

Oh I get a funny message as well when I follow that link as well.

The forum address is www.childmindinghelp.co.uk/forum - do you know how to put that into your favourites silvermist?

Then you can just come on here via favourites / bookmarks if you are on Firefox
