    Has anyone else had a small window come up saying ''the connection was refused when attmepting to contact boards.ie'' when they have tried to click on a forum or preview post?

    This has happened to me a few times now since the upgrade and has never happened before. Anyone know the reason why?

    Yeah I've got that a fair few times since the upgrade...but i've got it before also...as far as i know, it's just a timeout when attempting to contact boards...probably caused by the small glitches slowing the sight down on occasion...

    Was that at about 5 or 6? I think the sight was down...or at least it was for me...I kept getting "refused connection"

    Connection refused == server offline, come back in a little bit.

    Yeah it happened to me a few times this evening, then it said "tweaking wiki, back in 10 mins" and has been working perfectly since.

    It actually happened to me earlier on again..... this time on another website so maybe it's not just Boards.
