Forum real-time activity down?

Oct 31, 2007 6:39PM PDT

Yesterday it suddenly didn't refresh here at work. So I thought they changed some central server or firewall settings and let it go.

But it didn't refresh either when I came home in the evening. That could be the firewall at home (because it suddenly needed a reset to allow network traffic to another PC also, so why not here).

But the combination IS rather incidental. So I wonder if maybe it's an issue with CNET.

I didn't use it yesterday so I can't say but I have activated it now, so I will let you know if it's the same for me or if it is working.

I see you're first on my real time activity list, Happy
