Title: Our lovely forum and Chrome!
Post by: petercharlesfagg on October 01, 2014, 09:38:30 AM
Friends,

Since we switched hosts I get increasing problems in using Google Chrome with the site!

Every time I try the link I get the message at the bottom Left that "Resolving Host", then it suddenly times out!

The same applies with any reply to threads, "Resolving Host" appears and then the page times out!

I have had to resort to using IE8, but that is too slow for many of the other forums to which I subscribe!

Anyone else have the same?

Peter.

Apparently it is a known issue with Chrome, Peter. See http://www.webnots.com/correct-chrome-resolving-host-issue/ (http://www.webnots.com/correct-chrome-resolving-host-issue/)

I changed over to Chrome earlier this year Peter and I have not had any issues with it at all  :confused1:

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.

I also use Chrome on my Android mobile phone and Android Tablet with no problems.

cheers John.

I just love Chrome, what I have found is you need to keep up to date with all your windows updates, and any drivers on your PC.

In the interim period between writing the start post and now, I have opted to use Firefox for the forums and it is sheer bliss to merely click on the button and "ZAP!" I'm in!

Sorry to burden you all with my complaint, it was easily resolved!

Regards, Peter.
