Parts Express is not working?

enigmaticEntity. · 30th December 2009, 10:35 PM

Is anyone else having trouble accessing PE?

Is it just a new year update that I missed?

Internet Explorer keeps saying the link is broken when I click on the Google result. I haven't tried Firefox yet. (I'm in Australia, so if others are having problems, please post

)

Still unable to access. Maybe it's only a problem when trying to access it outside USA?

Hmmmm, server doesn't respond to a direct request, but using a USA proxy makes it come through.

They have a lot of outside-USA commercial accounts to block without notice. I think their BW provider is having issues.

Cheers!

** edit **

Using DiG gets through directly from Canada OK... sounds like a port blocking or misconfiguration issue...

** more info**

Traceroute command gets from me to there in six hops, almost completely unimpeded.

traceroute for me takes 19 hops. Maybe it's not port blocking? Maybe a problem in their apps configuration as you describe? Does anyone have a contact email so we can inform them?

They know about it and are working to solve the problem already.

They obviously don't give a hoot about us with commercial accounts!
