If you’re familiar with the terminal you can type in “ping VolNation.com” and see if that returns anything.

Dumb idea but is there any chance it’s auto populating a mistyped url? Have you tried just typing in VolNation and not using the auto populate? The only reason I ask is that’s happened to me before.

Its spelled correctly just checked to make sure

Man. So weird. And you don’t have any work software that could be affecting it? It sounds like it’s been manually blocked somehow.

Not that I know of basically all I use this computer for is volnation and some online shopping. Maybe I can do a complete system restore to last weeks setting its just got me baffled

Yeah, I wish I had more suggestions for you. I thought initially maybe your ip got blocked on our end but since your other devices are working that kills that theory.

The system restore worked the only thing showing was a windows update that took place the day it quit working but its working now thanks again for trying to figure it out

Probably not. Too many stars these days means too messy. I might consider a numerical indicator or something that doesn't take up as much screen space.

I'm on an android phone and use the duck duck go browser. VN has been "freezing" when I get to Twitter posts and I get a white bar at the bottom of my screen. I have to "flip" the page up or down, to get by it. It just started today.


Any ideas on what it could be? I've cleared my cache and did a duck duck go "erase all" command.

Not sure you’ve tried what I would have. That’s not a browser than I typically test. Chrome and safari keep me busy enough.

Have you tried chrome to see if you have the same issue or not?

No. I can try chrome and I was going to restart my phone. I'll try you know what happens



*I like duck duck go because it blocks ads and pop ups. I've not had any issues with it until now and it's only Twitter posts when it acts up so it could be something with them.

The restart didn't work but ....

Chrome doesn't freeze up and looks like it's working properly. Duck duck go has a "web tracking protection" option I have turned on and it's only happening with twitter posts. That might be what it is.



Thanks for responding. I hope you're doing alright.
