What browser are you using? Opera was causing problems for me before. Did you try cleaning your cookie cache?

Same here , I get this message when using explorer 7

"Ooops! You encountered an error, we have let the webmaster know about the problem.

When I click it returns to the same error.

I'm using Firefox now~!

I didn't expect Anandtech to not have an effective way to deal with this
forum upgrade issue. I haven't been able to access this forum for past few days,
and I keep looking at the Anandtech front page looking for reason, but
nothing about this forum upgrade issue. I would expect a computer expert
website like Anand to post an alert on front page that for some
people, if you use Firefox and don't clear the cache/cookies, you can't access the forum section.

The only way I found out how to get back actually in obesewallet forum, seems other users have this problem. Consider it's mostly computer
savy people acces this site, and they use FireFox and not IE, Anandtech should
better notify users about this. But not even a line on their front page. I am not surprised
if Anandtech lost a chunk of members because of this. People might find their way back here eventually, but I think it can be better handled.

i use IE and had the same error for a few days that Skip did. Cleared my temp files and all was well for a day or so. Today it wouldn't even load the page. Had to use a proxy site just to check if this site was up. Had to clear cache again and go back on but bot sure if this will occur again.............

I've done everything. I'll type in my credentials while using firefox and click login and the status bar simply says done and does not change the page at all.

Well now it is somewhat better....i coudlnt access links from pics.bbzzdd.com for articles, but now I can. But i cant get into the Digital Camera forum, I get the "Access Denied" issue.

I can seem to get into a decent amount of sections, and one thing I also noticed was that my settings just dont stick at all.....I have changed the forums I want to see 100 times, and still they dont take....

Can anyone help with this? Is my account hosed? i am using IE7, i have cleared everything..I even made a new account on a new pc and tried it, same results....HELP!!

I get the same error with Firefox on only one of my computers and I have cleared all my History, Cookies, etc.
Works on one computer and not on another with same OS & Browser .. Opera works fine ... This is nuts
