Seems like some sort of DDoS protection has been added.. Can't seem to stop wondering who would want to DDoS corvetteforum.com??

Had a problem getting in on my computer, but finally got in. Can not access the app on my phone. Something has happened.

No problems, Mac - Safari, OK. Firefox, corvetteforum.com goes to new front page, then only way to get to forum is to check on a topic.

Guys - refer to Rooster's Post #20. The site crashed yesterday and this is an interim provision to keep it running.

Only issues I've had were on my iPhone. I'd get redirected to the all store to buy some stupid game. Other times a box pops up with two selections. Both do the same thing. So I'd get out of safari, clear it from double tapping the home button. If that didnt work, I'd clear all cookies.

The site is not infected. The site is running behind CloudFlare's DDOS protection as discussed in the following active thread:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...r-browser.html
Specifically:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...post1594610286
The site is not infected. This is not a user-end issue. This is not exactly a server-end issue as this "checking" message is legitimate and, although may be temporarily inconvenient, it is better than the site not being accessible at all. As long as the site is being actively protected specifically for DDOS, you may see the "checking" message.
