http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif Is this me or the server? What does "host www.metafilter.com (http://www.metafilter.com):80 through proxy server null:0:" mean?

Network Error

Unable to request URL from host www.metafilter.com (http://www.metafilter.com):80 through proxy server null:0:
Operation timed out

My educated guess would be, that you access the Net through a Proxy, and the Proxy server cannot find that site, or it is blocked.


Ok I just tried to access the Site, and I can't resolve it, so I would say that was the problem. that error is an error from your proxy, It can't find the site on port 80 (Http) Null:0 would just mean that there is no entry for it I would assume
