    Moderator FYI - Was Not able to access ExcelForum.com for 2 days

    Just to let the powers that be know that I was unable to access ExcelForum.com from approximately Noon US Eastern Time on Monday May 5 until now (Noon US Eastern Time on May 7). The last time I tried prior to now was 7PM US Eastern Time on May 6.

    Configuration Details:
    ISP: Verizon.net in northern New Jersey.
    Browsers attemped: IE 8.0, Firefox, Chrome, Safari

    I don't expect any reply, FYI only.

    Thanks arlu.

    FYI the same thing happened again yesterday. It always seems to happen on Sunday. I was unable to log on from 9AM Sunday morning (US Eastern Time) until 1PM today (Monday July 21, 2014).

    I sent Trisha an e-mail this morning. I don't know if my success today was by Trisha (thanks) or by divine intervention.

    Thanks arlu. It happened again last night (Mon July 21, 2014) about 8PM Eastern US time. This morning I was able to access ExcelForum.com on the first try. All other Internet URLs that I use are accessible when ExcelForum.com gives me trouble. My feeling is that the source of the problem is one of 3 places:
    a. My computer
    b. ExcelForum.com
    c. Verizon.net (my Internet Service Provider)

    If I were to speculate, my speculation would be that Verizon.net is intermittently blocking the ExcelForum.com IP address from being accessed.
