Can't access shadyskinning.com by CookieRevised on 05-10-2004 at 11:01 AM
Since the site is back up I can't acces http://msnskins.shadyskinning.com/ anymore. It always gives me a timeout.
(My internet settings aren't the problem)
Anyone have a (detailed) solution?

proxy? 
RE: Can't access shadyskinning.com by Menthix on 05-11-2004 at 01:19 PM
Well, all i can tell you is that it's not down. Workin fine here.
RE: Can't access shadyskinning.com by CookieRevised on 05-11-2004 at 01:20 PM
I'm very leek at that.. So detailed instructions please 
Anyways, I'm looking more of a better solution without changing anything of how I connect to the net, and/or without installing extra stuff...
BTW: how is it, that it is only that site that I can't connect to? Every possible other site is no problem... Can it be something todo with the site itself? (bad/incomplete dns-links (or how is that stuff called) or something like that?)
(and my isp has a policy not to block anything, so...)

Hmm, i just clicked the link u gave Cookie an it works fine for me...any special things u set in ur connection/firewall, browser or any other program (for comp protection) that mite cause it???
Maybe if u set it as trusted website in ur firewall it will work
RE: Can't access shadyskinning.com by CookieRevised on 05-11-2004 at 01:33 PM
I know it is online, otherwise I would have another error. It "simply" times out.
And nope, I've nothing "special" like that (I hate those internet security programs and stuff by the way, so I never install them... I'm not as paranoid as other people 
...)
Setting it as a trusted site doesn't help, same old thing (logic, because I don't use the "trusted site" stuff, again, I don't set my internet for any ristrictions... the only thing I have is a Basic Router Firewall, I don't need anything else )
The thing is, before the site went down (a while ago now) I could access it with no problems. Then they shifted to another host or something (dunno what they did to be back up) and it was anounced on mess.be that they are back. Since then: time out.......
So because of all this, I'm 99,999999999% sure this isn't a local problem, but a problem on their/host part...
thanks for the suggestion though
RE: Can't access shadyskinning.com by Sunshine on 05-11-2004 at 01:35 PM

Edit: no prob Cookie

Well if Booghost, EvilSeph or Shady (or other admins) see this thread, please contact the creators/hosting people/whatever... I dunno who to contact or what is wrong, but I'm almost certain it isn't a bad setting on my part...

What happpens when you do "tracert msnskins.shadyskinning.com" at the command prompt ? Maybe it makes things a bit more clear on which point it has a problem.
BTW: http://66.79.191.30/
That is the IP it is reffering to when i do traceroute. It says they are still attempting to restore their server to it's original state (they had an attack).

While your connections goes trough the broadwing network, mine goes trough above.net. But that shouldn't be a problem. Hop 15 and 16 are the same, after that it should go to the final hop:

Maybe your IP is blocked because an IP in your range was detected during the attack on Visihost (the hosting company shadyskinning is on)? If so you could try to contact them (or let shady contact them): contact@visihost.net / www.visihost.net .

@ those hackers)Shady, will you do that for me
RE: Can't access shadyskinning.com by Daniel on 06-05-2004 at 03:59 AM
ooh .. sorry i didnt see this thread earlier .. this is how the story goes
visihost was attacked because of a dodgy customer on the server
all data was lost besides the mysql databases
shadyskinning was re-created again on the same server
luke (visihost owner) decided that it wasnt working out and gave up the server
i asked a favor from a friend at www.x1host.net for a favor to host me and he accepted
dns took a while to update (this is where you come in) and people cant access the site for a while as their isp hadnt updated the dns servers yet
msnskins and shadyskinning is back and rebuilt again
*present day*
