Reset The Connection

[Berniecuddles2]

keep getting this only on answerbank when logging in everytime
The connection was reset

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.


im on firefox mozilla and windows 10 cleared both history and cache no change...just tried microsoft edge same problem...all other web sites fine...any ideas please

Bernie, do you clear your cache every time you exit the browser? We use a cookie to keep you logged in, so if you clear them, you get logged out.

Well after racking e old grey matter I can only think of a couple of things.
Maybe AB server is having trouble recognising your IP address.
A strange modem/router compatibility issue.
Have you got a firewall or malware programme installed which could be preventing connection?

[Berniecuddles2]

dont touch anything ED this all started 24 hrs ago never had a problem since then ..everytime i come on to site i have to log on be it firefox or edge!
get same message "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" when i submit this answer this will happen. togo im on kaspersky no probleme ever with it

Togo. When any techie gives advice I always help myself by following said advice,however when clicking on my profile I do not find a star at top of page to enable favorites.

Ron, the star is on the right of the toolbar

[Berniecuddles2]

morning whiskeyron if you right click on welcome back whiskyron bit ..at top the star is there for favs

[dannyk13]

Sorry I meant the URL bar.

[whiskeryron]

still no star. Is it my browser ? Seamonkey

[SlackAlice]

Are you using the 'forbidden unmentionable item' the AB Editor doesn't like?
Sounds like an advert script not running quick enough.

Try re-setting your router/modem as well.

All fine with me on F/Fox W10

whiskeryron
Seamonkey doesn't have a 'star' :(

It's all organised under bookmarks.

[Berniecuddles2]

morning slack
turned off adguard still doing it
malwarebytes nothing all ok
midway betwwen full kaspersky scan
as yet nothing
only happens on answerbank have to sign in all the time and when i submit anything connection was reset pops up!

[Old_Geezer]

I'm getting that. Firefox was ok yesterday, why would it be wrong today ? Something changed on this site ?

[Togo]

//Normally Kaspersky checks a program's trust rating the first time it launches. There's an option to scan and check all programs when turning on this feature, an initial investment of time that will pay off in speedier operation later.
Known and valid programs naturally receive full trust from the firewall, allowing all reasonable access to the system and the network. Known malware is, of course, untrusted, other programs may be labeled Low Restricted or High Restricted. For these programs, certain actions are forbidden, while others are permitted only if the user confirms it's OK.//

Bernie there is no doubt that Kaspersky is very good. Is it possibly a setting issue for you to investigate. The above was from a review site.

[Berniecuddles2]

where to start togo ..thx for your help by the
way

[SlackAlice]

Togos post at 09.58 is interesting and may give a clue as to the delay, which in turn causes a re-set.

That wasn't the unmentionable I was referring to, but close enough. Do you use Firefox's password manager? If so, check that AB's in there and that the passwords correct, I have known FF to very occasionally put in the wrong one.

I've just signed in to AB with Edge, all ok. adverts loading a bit slow but fine.

SlackAlice, Thankx

Still happening here so far it appears to be a firewall security problem but disabling Kasperskey and security progs have no effects still working on it
