I am unable to connect to this site from any of my 3 home pc's.I have been viewing from home since the inception of this site. I am able to connect to all other sites I normally frequent but not CSR ? This started sunday 12/7/08. I get a "network timed out" error. I am sending this from my work pc. Any suggestions?
 
My first thought is that you dont have any internet access. You may have pages stored in your temp internet folders which gives you the impression that you have a connection.

This happened to my daughters PC. I removed her wireless aircard because she was being punished and when I went back to her room to check on her she was playing on Nicolodean's website. At first I didnt know what was going on, then I realized that she had the pages stored in her temp files and the flash game was still working.

Another thing to check is to see of you have any software such as Norton or other web control access software which may be blocking the site. Did you activate any "Family settings" with your ISP provider? Sometimes there is software running in the router that blocks "offensive" sites.
 
"It's obvious. You are spending too much time at home, and not enough at work".
I figured I would get that.

Like I said I have 3 pc s surfing the net almost constantly...I have a connection...have checked my filter settings, pop-up blockers etc.....
 
Try entering the IP address of Club Searay (208.78.40.13) in your web browser in stead of the name.
 
okay I'll try that when I get home...thanks.
 
I had the same issue last week.. changed the comcast modem works fine now!

Are you now being punished by your daughter? After all, the kids these days are incredible with hacking machines! : )
 
I'm stumped , still unable to connect to CSR from any of my home computers.Still getting "Network Timeout" I have :
-disabled my firewall (temporarily)
-went to BOE and tried to link from there
- tried mozilla & internet explorer
- typed in IP address directly
- I can get to any site but CSR
I am posting this from work.

I would try calling your ISP to have them look into it.
 
Try entering the IP address of Club Searay (208.78.40.13) in your web browser in stead of the name.

See if you can ping the IP address. Go to Start, Run, then type "Command".

Once you get the little black window, type "Ping 208.78.40.13" If you are able to ping the site, then you can rule out your ISP and assume the problem is with your PC/web browser.

Not sure what your next steps should be after that. Don't rule out a virus.. Run McAfee or Norton, Download Microsoft Malicious software removal tool or Windows Defender and run them. Clean out Temp folders and delete all cookies. (Warning, you will loose stored IDs and passwords to websites if you delete all your cookies, so you may want to write then down first)

Good luck hacking!
 
"Jim is blocking the IP addresses of everyone who voted for Obama.... "
Then this would have nothing to do with me although I do remember the thread were you called me a "Thong wearing, Democrat, Bastard"...( I am none of the three).

I did ping the site and got a response ( forgot to mention that) I will try some of the other suggestions...thanks.
 
You can try different name servers which may help - also you can try flushing your DNS cache. For Windows - close your browser(s) and type the following at a command line: ipconfig /flushdns . You should get a message "Successfully flushed the DSN resolver cache" Try the site again... if it still doesn't work try to manaully change your DNS servers. You can use a site like this to find alternatives to your ISP servers.

As a side note - if you have a cable modem - try disconnecting it and your wireless adapter for at least a minute and then plug in - cable modem first and then your wireless adapter after your cable modem is online.
 
Most likely you have tried this already, but try deleting the "cookie" for the clubsearay site, reboot the system and try to access the site again. Worked for me when I had a problem getting into one of my "favorites" web sites near the end of last year.

Just my two cents.
 
I'm back...I unplugged my modem for a few minutes and here I am ! that was easy.
 
I called you a thong wearing democrat bastard?

Wow... that doesn't sound like me...
 
I know , I was shocked.
