I've had trouble reaching SST from my Mac using Safari when using the bookmark; using the link as found on Google worked fine. Both links looked identical to me, so I don't see why that should have made any difference.
Using FireFox on Windows I've had no problems, so I assume this is some bizarre Safari problem (Apple released some updates recently, maybe they broke something - it's been known to happen =8^). The wonders of modern technology ...
i have occasionly gottet the message web page unaccessible.
then i have gone back and gotten the page back from scratch.
i don't have it bookmarked.
i just type in the first few letters, such as turcop etc and the browser does the rest, either that or i click on the link from friday lunch club
i ofter use my cell phone for a modem. i notice it picks up different cell towers so i come up as various cities in NC even though i stay in the same spot.
I can reach it only by googling "Pat Lang" and working back from the SST link there. The SST link I've had as a bookmark for some time reads the same but stopped working a week or so ago. Such is my loyalty and level of interest that I still visit several times a day using the roundabout method.
I was having trouble connecting to SST a few days ago using Safari. Later I found it was affecting all typepad.com sites. Yet other members of my household were able to reach typepad.com with Safari, as could I in other browsers.
I cleared my cookies for typepad.com and suddenly all was well. If people cannot connect to SST at all, I would advise trying this.
SST will not load on Safari v.3.1.2 on MacOS X 10.4.11 unless I google SST and click from the google page.i thought that maybe my Safari was corrupted.
loads fine on Camino v.1.6.4; had trouble with Firefox on my home computer, but i'll have to check which version it is.
no problems on my end. Site is always available.

No problems with Firefox 3. However, Dow is down 489.

Will not load consistently and indefinitely with Safari v3.1.2 on MacOS X 10.4.11 but works fine on the same machine with Firefox 3.0.3...

Not me. The post came onto my RSS feed, I clicked on it, and voila! Here I am.

No problem here. Are you sure this is unrelated to Cheney's arrhythmia?

No problem with the site. But why I am so fat?

oh i see it is mostly mac/safari which i use
Posted by: Katherine Hunter | 15 October 2008 at 07:38 PM
Weirder yet, I have followed the pointers offered above with the following results:
Safari on my iMac/Intel:
- Does NOT work from bookmark or when typed in directly
- Works fine from Google (as indicated above)
Safari on Windows Vista:
- Works fine under all circumstances...
Safari on my iBook/G3:
- Works fine under all circumstances!!!
Note to the curious (and nerdier) among you: all Macs use MacOS X 10.11.4 and latest Safari everywhere...
This one has me stumped... for now.

Got a few "Page Inaccessible" errors over the weekend using SRWare Iron browser. No problems since then.

All's well here, Col. Lang. However if that was happening I probably would have a bad case of withdrawl symptoms.
