[i]had to clear cookies/cache to allow me back in to site[/i]

me too on Firefox (and restart it)

IE and phone were both ok.

kept getting the 'coffee cup error' in FF. Same thing happened a couple of months ago with FF.

Since yesterday I keep getting the 'coffee cup page not found' when I try to access the 'Bike Forum' or 'Chat Forum' tabs but I can access the combined Bike / Chat forums via the main 'Forums' tab. The 'For Sale' forum is fine. I thought it was just our IT bod blocking access as I spend too much time on here 😆 I haven't tried it at home so don't know if it is anything to do with my work laptop or not. Weird.

Edited to confirm I'm using IE9.

Stormtrooper the tip above often works, dump your cache and restart your browser.

I've been experiencing problems with this site, so employed Flash bloker in chrome, and the problem seems to have gone. A check in Activity Monitor reveals that Flash player is taking huge amounts of memory, causing the slowness. This is the case with Chrome, Firefox and Safari. With Flashdance on, there are no issues. And it only seems to be the case with this website, not others with flash content (although some newspaper sites can be problematic sometimes0.

No problems on my android phone, which doesn't use flash.

Drac - Cheers, I thought I had done this but when I double-checked I still had 'Preserve Favoutite website data' selected. All sorted now 😀
