Help Members can't get forum to load

Post by Cary »

I have a few members that can not pull up my forum. I have NO clue why. I can pull it up just fine. I then said it might be the IE they are using and they downloaded firefox like I am using but it still won't work.
I have no clue why or what to do can anyone help.
Thank You
Cary

Have those members cleared their cache and cookies?

Whats the link? If I am able to access it then I might then be able to offer help as to why it isn't working for your members.

I can see pink background with red hearts and the forums.

Check here because you are using a free hosting forum and they might be able to help.
