KMC seems screwed.
For the past two days when I've tried to post on anything, after about two minutes, a Nortons pop-up box comes up, saying an intrusion attempt has been detected, then KMC goes 'Page not found' and white screens...
Doesn't happen with any other websites sad

sbo
I've gotten the same message for the past couple of days whenever I try and do a search.

Clovie
nothing like that happened to me.

It happens to me sometimes too. messed

I can be browsing KMC, then all of a sudden it lags and says that KMC could not be detected or that the operation timed out.

It's like my internet connection loses signal, but I can still talk on MSN, so it's got to be KMC.

GCG
must be something wrong with your PCs ....i dont get that either

Hulk Power
It's happened to me a few times. What does it mean?

G.P
Got the same problem 3 days ago, while clicking on a "Find last post" link. Every time I did it, my comp detected an intrusion attempt and blocked KMC for some time...

So it is not necessarily a problem with our computers. Even if its due to the last update of a firewall, this should not happen...

eggmayo
It's definetly KMC, I've been on some MMORPG's for over 3 hours and it hasnt done that. MSN works fine too.

GCG
blink

I was on browsing KMC earlier today on another PC and a window popped up telling me about an error occuring and asking if i would like to send an error report.

Then the internet browser just closed !

Something is wrong with KMC when used with certain PCs I am concluding.....

eggmayo
But mine worked fine before, I've been on here for two years with no problem...

Sometimes, when I click last page or a certain page, it sais "Page Not Found" and whenever I try to do it again, it does the same thing!

Also about these problems, how long have they been happening, and are they still going on?

Also about these problems, how long have they been happening, and are they still going on? it was my sister Aluriela on the site logged on and I hadn't Logged out thats why.

Lana
And that is why you should always log out of your account if it's on a computer that other people use.

TOH

Lana
I refused to download SP2 because too many people I know had their computers completely messed up by it stick out tongue

eggmayo
I am, but I've been using it for a long time with no problems.

Clovie

eggmayo
Yeah still crashing every five minutes or so. I'm trying it with Firefox instead.

G.P
My problem remains (it started exactly 2 weeks ago). I'd better not want to find someone's last post, or my own comp gives me a one-hour ban ! roll eyes (sarcastic)

And I'm using SP2, which, I agree, is "evil". wink

TOH
I know that will sound like a mantra but...switch to Firefox firefox...but if you still want to use IE....stick out tongue
I think we have a pattern here...Ok: Its quite possible that your hosts file has been modified. The hosts file is a system level override that can map certain domains to static ips. Hosts file should be located in something like:

C: \WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc

Open and get rid of all but 127.0.0.1 localhost (edit it in notepad). BUT MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE!!!

Restart and pray... pray

G.P
I already use Firefox Happy Dance


...but I don't need to restart and pray for my other comp crashed a month ago and I can't afford to take so much risk! eek!
Well I'll see what I can do with this. Thanks TOH

Ok I've got more information about what happens:

When I click on "Find last post", Norton thinks I'm attacked. At first, I get the same message as eggmayo.

yerssot
damn straight I am cool

have you set cookies to accept?

G.P

Clovie
but there are some option for that. i'm sure i've been playing with it once ninja

G.P
I'm so stupid. It's alright, I cancelled Norton's barrier and it works by now . But I still don't know why this has started...

Clovie
congrats big grin

eggmayo
Yeah, I can't change Nortons, my Dad has been brainwashed by how good it seems, because of how many things it blocks (usually wrongly) and wont allow me to change it. Hasn't crashed again yet, I'll screenshot when it does.

That's exactly what message I got, I don't even have Netscape.
I've allowed the IP address to view the cookie, and I'll see whether that helps.
