If it happens against, things to try would be to ping the site and see if responds. If it doesn't, that means a site like Facebook is down momentarily, or, the server you happened to get put on shat itself while handling your request, and you'll have to reissue your request. There's also the possibility that somebody like me, at one of the 10+ hops between you and everywhere else in the world, hit the "reset" button on something, say, the router you're talking through. That can cause dropped packets, for which some protocols (HTTP being one) don't handle well. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:32:11 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=664&msg_id=666 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=664&msg_id=665 Naturally 3 minutes later everything seems to have resolved itself and is working fine. (slowly waves hand in front of you) This thread never existed.

I checked Facebook before going to class this morning and when I came home a few hours later I tried to log back on, but after entering in my log in information I'm greeted, on Google Chrome at least, with a white screen that reads: "This webpage is not available. The webpage at https://login.facebook.com/login.php?login_attempt=1might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address." Below that is an expandable option to "Learn more about this error" that reads: "Error 118 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT): The operation timed out." Every other website works perfectly fine, but Facebook has not worked for a number of hours. Any ideas of what is wrong?
