    strange hangs

    My site is on samus.nocdirect.com and I'm a bit concerned as I notice strange hangs.
    Even if I can upload via FTP to public html pages to update a page, often browsers
    will just hang when I try to go to the main page. It's pretty bizarre. Then all of a sudden,
    it's back to normal. So it makes me think it has no relation to my pages.

    Anyone else running into something similar? Supposedly I have 7 GB bandwidth per day at my disposal but I'm lucky if I can run up 1 MB!!! My html is as vanilla as you can get. One frameset and no dynamic pages.

    Yup. I'm not a network expert but it seems weird if I can access the same machine via FTP that there'd be a problem connecting via HTTP. It seems to be working pretty normally for the moment. It's a new site so at this point nobody knows it's even there, but I know it discourages people right away if they click a download and get no connect. They figure it's a free host and the guy used his quota for the month so they just move on.

    I'm confused...

    Are you saying your web site 'hangs' when you're viewing it with a browser, or...

    FTP uploads/downloads are working okay, but HTTP downloads are 'hanging'?

    Have you tried checking the server load when this occurs? It could be a problem with a high load on the server through a particular service (namely apache) causing it to freak out and stop serving pages for a few minutes...

    Next time this happens run the top command from SSH and see what the server load is...

    My scripts never have bugs. They just develop random features.

    Firefox has the same type of "stupid phising filter"...

    I turn it off and use PhishTank SiteChecker instead!

    Nope. It's nothing to do with my browsers. I try IE, firefox, opera and netscape. If one hangs
    they all hang. It's not DNS lookup because if it blocks on that Firefox will say "looking up..." in the status bar. Besides, when it starts working nothing has changed in the browsers. Today for example, as often as I check, the response seems snappy.

    Guess I'll wait and see for a while.
