Forum:Troubles connecting to Wikia sites

Hi. I noticed that last night when I tried to get on my wikis, I kept getting an error message. I'm not sure if it had something to do with Wikia or just my computer, but here's the message:

ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://logocreation.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Recentchanges

The following error was encountered:

Unable to forward this request at this time. This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:

The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and All configured parent caches are currently unreachable. Your cache administrator is technical@wikia.com.

Also, today I'm trying to get on wikis, and I keep getting this message saying "Operation Aborted" for every wiki I try to go to. I'm surprised it even let me get to this forum to type this message! Anyway, I was just wondering if it has anything to do with the Wikia server, and if anyone else is having these problems. Thanks.  Swannie   - ( talk ) 12:33, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * "Operation aborted" errors occur only using Intenet Explorer, and are caused by some intensive JavaScript code, such the ones Wikia are using with the ads. Use other browser, block the ads or both. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 15:04, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
