Are you using http://www.viva-media.com/Those of you who are having problems, what do you see when you try to visit www.viva-media.com ? Do you see nothing but a white screen that never loads? Or do you get a 404 error? Or a "not found on this server" error?

I just clicked on Jenny's link and immediately went to the website. I have never been there, so there is nothing in my Firefox browser history. I immediately went to the VivaMedia site in IE and Chrome too. Have you tried clearing your browser cache/history?
Once again, weeds are my life!

If you have no software firewall that could be blocking the site, I think the problem may be with your Internet Service Provider's routing. You'll have to call them up if the problem is on their end. The problem could also be on Viva-Media's side if they blocked a range of addresses for security reasons (such as someone launching a denial of service attack using that range of addresses). So you could also try contacting Viva-Media about the problem, though I don't know how quickly they respond to emails. You can try emailing using the email address in the profile of the Viva-Media representative who posted earlier in this thread. To test if your IP address is mistakenly being blocked, you could try accessing the Viva-Media website with the TOR browser, which changes your IP number. But TOR browser is VERY VERY slow so even if you do get through, it's not something you'd want to continue to use. https://www.torproject.org/

Which is why it's probably Viva-Media's problem. But they should be concerned if their customers can't get to their website. Just out of curiosity, can you get to ***Google's cache of the viva-media.com website***? That would be quicker to check than installing TOR.

I don't think the problem is due to JavaScript. When I disable JavaScript in my browser, most of the page still loads. Here's a screenshot http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/9012/picture1rhe.pngSo there's those 3 squares instead of the picture that's supposed to be there (the picture requires JavaScript). Other links on the page work fine. I don't know if Java is used on the site, but JavaScript doesn't seem to be used for anything critical.

Dear Fans and loyal customers, We are sorry you have trouble accessing our site. We have had some ongoing maintenance in order to speed up the site due to a very quickly expanding exciting new catalogue of new games and increased traffic. The most probable reason for not being able to access the website, as Jenny100 said, is the IP blocking defense mechanism that is standard to make sure no malware-infected hosts visit the site. Potentially there may be some false positives so we would recommend the following steps: Go to www.whatismyip.com and get your IP address. Then go to http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-check and confirm that the Ip automatically put in is the same as you had in the previous step and click the 'Check Blacklists' button. This should show a comprehensive set of lists and if you have all check-marks, it means you are not listed. In this case, please contact us via mail [AT] viva-media [DOT] com , and we will further investigate the issue. If you are in fact listed, first run a full virus scan on your computer to make sure you have not been hijacked by malware. Run windows update to be fully patched. Then you can request to remove yourself from any blacklists you are on. We hope this helps and that you will be able to access our site. You are very important to us, so please contact us. We are expanding our catalogue and have a lot of regular deals so it would be a shame if you could not take advantage of them. By the way, I'm not a sales guy, I am one of the IT support staff :-) I hope you all have a great day, and once again, please do not hesitate to contact us after you performed the above troubleshooting steps. Best, A.S. - Viva Media

Family, Just go to http://whatismyipaddress.com/blacklist-checkand make sure all the websites have a green check. You may see a few question marks, but those can be ignored. If you see any red exclamation marks, there might be a problem. Your ISP probably changes your IP address every so often, so you might be left with someone else's bad reputation even though you've never spread malware. If you have all green checks, then email Viva-Media at the mail [AT] viva-media [DOT] com address they gave, substituting @ for [AT] and . for [DOT] and tell them you have all green checks in the test and want to know why you're not able to get online.
