Help typhoid with GT access

Dyne · 07-18-2008, 07:20 PM

Typhoid's internet wonked out and GT is one of the only sites he can't get to. It apparently keeps saying "server isn't found" and it keeps timing out. Any ideas on how to fix it for him?

He can read us through a proxy here.

Maybe he should work with Combine. He can access GT but not much else of the net.

But maybe there is something with cookies or one of those fancy computer words I know little about.

Atleast, I got him here through a proxy.

Mine is doing that when I try to go to GameFaqs. It's been doing it for a while, and I haven't been able to find a solution.

It sounds like some wack, trojan, browser-hijacker.

Probably due to Typhoid's douche-atude.

Wait, he can't read this right?

Just jealous that he raped your position

You assume I'm educated in the first place.
Never assume anything.

So have you solved your problem or are you still accessing thru a proxy?

Good to have you back.

I don't get the joke, though.

How did you fix the problem?

Typhoid · 07-20-2008, 01:40 PM

I'm still on a proxy, and it's highly annoying, because for whatever reason, the proxy site doesn't let me create threads, only post in them.

And the joke was "Wait, he can't read this, right?" which I turned literal, since it's the internet and reading is required, and implied I am not educated enough to be able to read yet, telling the person "No, I cannot read this. Don't assume I'm educated."

Goddamnit I hate proxy sites.

I assume you did all the safe stuff like delete cookies and stuff.
Do you have another comp to test to see if its your computer or the network?

And not that you want it, but we can find you other proxies. Maybe one that allows you to make threads.. who knows

Haha I'm not sure what position, but that's awesome.

What browser are you using / what programs do you normally have running?

Typhoid · 07-21-2008, 05:34 PM

The computer is beyond fucked up as it is anyways. It's riddled with viruses. I have to run every program manually, via task manager. Nothing autoruns. The recovery (D drive) doesn't respond to anything, so I can't even do a backup. Explorer (the main program that runs the background, icons, and general funcionability of the whole shabang) isn't a valid process anymore.

But anyways, I use Firefox, and the only programs I ever have running are it, Messenger and WMP from time to time.

You see, my mother has this condition called "obliviousness", where she gets an email, reads it, and clicks the links. This has caused the downfall of my computer.

This is all the more reason for me to just get a laptop or new desktop this weekend anyways.
