Am I banned?

Post by 91Bear »

Whenever I try to go to FTE, I get a pop-up window that says "The connection was refused when attempting to connect to www.ford-trucks.com."

I can connect on my desktop, but not on my laptop, which leads me to believe that my laptop IP address has been banned.

If so, I don't know why I was banned. I use that site to ask questions about my 1993 Ford Explorer and this site to ask questions about my 1969 F100. I have never been derogatory in either site.

What do you need to go over there for (unless it is to stir up trouble :D )
Great ideas have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.

The way things are going, I'm almost going to have to start up an "Anti-FTE" section on the forums, just to keep 'em all in the same place! :lol:

Hey, guys. I guess the Buffalo Springfield was right all those years ago - Paranoia does indeed strike deep. Actually, you may get that error message for some other reason. I still spend time over at the site-that-cannot-be-mentioned and occasionally get that message when trying to access it. I think it simply indicates some kind of problem on the hosting server.

clear the cookies on your laptop.

Bet you can get there then if you want to (don't know why you would) as long as you don't try to log in.
