Title: Problems loading Hardocp web page
Post by: willsy on March 25, 2005, 10:45:34 AM
I'm having problems loading the Hardocp website www.hardocp.com (http://www.hardocp.com)
Some other people are having a similar problem
http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1027433114#post1027433114

Most other websites are OK

I have to disable Avast to get it to load fully. This has only happened in the last few days.
I also have to disable Avast to log into my Netgear router web configuration.

Any ideas?

When I have Webshield running the pages load but the Front page never finishes :(  the forum page is fine. With Webshield disabled both pages load perfect and faster.

Seems to be a loopback between the WebShield proxy, firewall, browser...
Maybe if you search for the word 'loopback' in the forums you can find more... If I'm not wrong, I remember to have read something about it.
Sorry, I don't know the solution right now...

Hi Technical, I wasn't looking for an answer. I don't have problems with webshield, was only testing for willsy.

I cleaned my cache and now things are fine, think it's the large amount of ads on Hardocp front page as I'm on dialup.

You shouldn't have to disable (and don't) Avast!, maybe try to pause Webshield and see what happens.

No problems here, I disabled both Adblock and Flashblock before going to www.hardocp.com As in other thread with simular problem try that new ashwebsv.exe file http://forum.avast.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=81f2c1c3589b5397b15a598f38c1903d&topic=12305.0 and direct link here http://forum.avast.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=700bd5b8ca2164ddb2553427aac1ca47&topic=12015.msg101725#msg101725  Was made cause of simular problem with other page.

Backup ashwebsv.exe first so you can restore.
