Works fine for me... and I've never been there, so it isn't cached.

Oh, BS. You've NEVER been to Newegg.com? :roll:

What's so hard to believe? I have a Dell, no money for any upgrades, and I don't find much pleasure in window shopping hardware...

Nope. Not yet anyway. :D It's early yet, though. Seriously, it's DOWN. I thought it might be my Winderz install, as this is a ghost of a ghost of a ghost....:eek: but hell, seems that at least half of us can't get to it.

I wonder if it's a router prob? I'm in Omaha, Nebraska; those that can't get there, where are you? Maybe we're going off the same router(s)?

Works for me right now.

Just checked out some refurbed Thermaltake heatsinks and the price difference with the new is only $0.70 ($32.99 vs. 32.29). :disgust:

Hmm, I've got a Packet Loss test queued up at DSLReports.com. Let's see what it says; I'm betting nothing, as all other sites are nice and speedy.

Does anybody else get redirected to a search page called com.org?


I type in www.newegg.com and it goes to this http://www.www.newegg.com.org/

I think I got a meanie in here somewhere. Shiit. SAV shows NOTHING. Spybot shows NOTHING. WTF?

Interesting. Look at the "How did you get here?" link at the bottom of the page.

I just followed those instructions. Let's see what happens.

THAT FIXED IT. I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT IT WORKED. YOU MUST REBOOT AFTERWARDS, THOUGH IT DOESN'T PROMPT YOU TOO. :)

Could be spyware.

Time to download Ad-Aware or SpyBot Search & Destroy

I'm having some Newegg performance issues as well... only Newegg, no other sites. Surfing from Iowa, and I *need* to place an order so it gets here by next Friday.

Not ad-/spy-ware related, I'm on Linux using Mozilla 1.7. I keep getting connection refused errors... every now and then it'll work for a minute or two, then back to the errors. :confused:

Yeah, works fine for a couple of my friends too... it was working for about 10 min. and then just stopped again. Pretty annoying. Wonder where the problem lies... too bad I don't know enough about networking to figure out myself.
