Author Topic: MALA homepage gone? EDIT: Being blocked by Comcast? (Read 7131 times)

Been a while since I updated.

www.malafe.net is not there anymore.

http://mala.arcadezentrum.com/
linked to in the BYOAC wiki takes me to a screen that just says "It Works!"

Where are people supposed to download MALA from now?

I downloaded v1.74 on my laptop and never set it up, so I can just copy that folder,
but seriously....where are people who have never used it supposed to download it from?

EDIT: WORKS FINE FROM WORK AND MY CELL PHONE, just not my house. $:-\$

You sure? I just went there, and it looks like it has to me. Maybe a net problem?

Yep, up for me too... maybe just a hiccup.

I think its a comcast issue or something. I cant get there form home, but if I remote into a client's terminal server I go there with no problem. I downloaded the set up and then gmailed it to myself.

Strange, but I do have Comcast. It hangs for a bit and then says the webpage cannot be displayed.
This is with internet explorer. I'll have to switch computers and try a different browser.

EDIT: Same result with Firefox. The website comes up fine on my phone. Strange, very strange.

On AT&T here, FWIW.

I'm up on my no good lousy CTVEA service.

Comes up fine for me. I use CLEAR for my internet.

I have Comcast too and it also hangs and then says could not connect to malafe.net. I am using Google Chrome.

Sounds like comcast has a DNS server routing issue.

creatine28 · « **Reply #10 on:** June 07, 2012, 03:37:49 pm »

Are you guys still having problems getting in? I also have Comcast and cant access the Mala site.

Any work arounds?

I came accross this, but it sounds like it's better if the MALA website admin submits it:
https://www.comcastsupport.com/sdcxuser/asp/frameset.asp?mainframe=%2Fsdcxuser%2Fasp%2Fcomcast%5Fblockedprovider%2Easp%3F

FWIW, we use ntelos for our ISP at work. I cannot get to malafe.net here. I also cannot access it from my Verizon iphone. I really dont think it has anything to do with Comcast. I've also tried changing my DNS servers and still can't get in.

I can usually access it from work, but it's not coming up today.

On Time Warner Cable NC here and never had a site blocked by the ISP that i'm aware of. Couldn't get to MalaFe.net. Probably a hosting issue at this point.

drventure · « **Reply #15 on:** June 08, 2012, 12:20:47 pm »

Well, several days ago I could still get to it, but not anymore.

BadMouth · « **Reply #16 on:** June 08, 2012, 02:40:17 pm »

It's back up.

(at work through Verizon anyway)

TopJimmyCooks · « **Reply #17 on:** June 08, 2012, 02:41:22 pm »

Rolling blackouts? Back working here as well.

Vidiot · « **Reply #18 on:** June 08, 2012, 03:05:28 pm »

Yay! Server problems maybe? I'm back on as well.

BadMouth · « **Reply #19 on:** June 08, 2012, 06:02:01 pm »

Now works with comcast!

CoryBee · « **Reply #20 on:** June 08, 2012, 06:58:02 pm »

Back up for me too

loadman · « **Reply #21 on:** June 11, 2012, 02:30:17 am »

Yeah all good.

I was worried for a while as someone took it over and injected a spambot opce, but not this time.
