With apologies in advance to those on site at present, I must take the board off-line in around 10 minutes for maintenance. I envisage it will not be offline for any more than 1 hour.

I just had to really laugh out loud when I read your response tayga!

I do not know if anyone else is having this problem, but I cannot get on the forum using IE as a browser.
Mozilla Firefox works fine, but with IE I just get a blank blue page.

Hey Nick, it might be working for you, but not for me or probably many others using IE. I use Chrome as a daily browser, but I started getting notifications that people using IE were having this problem of just a blue screen (I'd call it blue-green, but maybe I'm color blind...). I'm trying to track down what the problem is. My own IE (v9) still won't display the forum for me, no matter what I do. As so many people use IE it's a BIG problem. That's one of the reasons I took the board off-line, to update to the latest phpBB in case that was causing an issue, but I've still got the background only in IE9!
Curioser and curioser...
Cheers, Dave.

TPOD COMES UP, BUT NO TBOLT FORUM. IT'S A CONSPIRACY! Oops caps lock! The color on my IE9 is a blue-greenish grey; sort of the color of alien blood.
I sense a disturbance in the farce.

Yes, I am using IE 9 right now.
I had that blank dark blue page, and I started clicking things, just to see what would happen. Finally, I clicked "translate" on the Google tool bar and the forum sign in page appeared. I signed myself in and have not had any trouble since. I have no idea why that worked.
