Every time I go to any page on the forum, be it main, a channel, a thread or even post reply (most annoying), after it has loaded it tries to redirect me to http://forum.team17.co.uk/profile.php?do=dst which doesn't seem to exist; it times out. This has only been happening today. It is most annoying because ATM our internet is down so I'm using a mobile attached to a computer that only has IE, and at half the speed of dialup it's annoying to have to go back and load another page. Also, when it happens on the reply screen, it also removes all input in the forms because its IE, meaning I lose the post halfway through writing it.

You have probably angered some nordic god. You need to sacrifice a goat .

I'm not getting anything like that here - looking at that URL I'd suggest it has something to do with the clocks going forward an hour this morning, and the forum possibly getting a bit confused.

All seems to be working fine for me :confused:

It works fine when browsing on the phone itself like now. Maybe it's a script that for some reason the o2 proxy server is interpreting as a redirect. It was fine yesterday so you're probably right.

If possible, view the source of the page that redirects you. Search for the said address in the source and see what you get.

Clocks here went back a couple of weeks ago and I don't remember any errors.

The servers are based in the UK, and our clocks only changed yesterday (Sunday 30th) - and they went forward an hour.

but on the subject of the glitch, this exact same issue happens to me on another forum, so it's a problem of vB but seems to happen sporadically. I've yet to find a fix for it, btw. it just sort of goes away after a short time.
