Is abnzb offline? Whenever I try to connect to the website I get a "403 Forbidden" screen from Cloudflare. Similar with scenenzbs and rlsbb.ru (although their alternates are still working). Common denominator is Cloudflare and/or a "bad cert domain" SSL error.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?
No, try it (ab) again now.
All three working fine for me. If you can confirm these DNS records, either your IP is in a blacklist or your ISP is trying to hijack the request.
Code:Name TTL Class Type Priority Data
abnzb.com. 300 IN A 104.21.4.115
abnzb.com. 300 IN A 172.67.132.8
rlsbb.ru. 300 IN A 104.31.16.122
rlsbb.ru. 300 IN A 104.31.16.7
scenenzbs.com. 300 IN A 104.21.47.31
scenenzbs.com. 300 IN A 172.67.144.43
The mystery deepens... Fired up the old VPN -- same result.
Having said that, the above seems browser-specific. Firefox won't let me connect; Edge will connect. Odd.
Open about:support and you'll find two options in the top right corner: refresh and safe mode. You could try them in reverse order as they're going to be faster than trying to solve this sort of mystery problem (but keep in mind refreshing resets all addons and preferences).Quote:

I just noticed that for abnzb.com at least, trying to access without HTTPS does result in a Cloudflare timeout error, any chances you're doing that by accident?
Nope. And now the situation has spreads to FST as well. Firefox no bueno; Edge is working.
So odd. Maybe it was working off something in the cache until now? If I think back to it, all this may coincide with the latest Firefox update a week ago or so. Who the fuck knows what they changed.
FWIW... I received the same update... the only thing I noticed when that happened was Firefox pulled up a new tab, (As they sometimes do.), explaining now how you can combine tabs when you may have to many in your browser. (I'm guilty of that!)
So sorry for your issues mate. :(
Well, followed anon's suggestion and refreshed Firefox. Lost my add-ins, not sure about the bookmarks (had them backed up before) and of course lost all my open tabs, but it looks like it's working again. At least I can connect here.
Now being greeted by some message at the top of the screen about "Your privacy matters. Firefox now securely routes you DNS requests whenever possible to a partner to protect you while you browse." Maybe I need to disable that?
Those things aren't deleted, just moved to a folder called "Old Firefox Data" in the desktop in case you need to return to them. I'd just reinstall the addons and consider this a victory, though :)Quote:

I've already done that (or at least pressed the disable button). I'm always suspicious when a big corporation wants to "help" me. :)
Somehow the reset screwed up my Plex interface as well. Funny what kind of rat tail of consequences some things lead to...
Sounds like a good time to learn how policies.json works and what these do. ;)Quote:
