MSDN Forums?

Anyone know how to get to these?

I either get an asp.net error each time (ironic?, lol), or FF tells me it keeps redirecting to a place that will never complete.

FF seemed to work when I tried it, but did you try IE?

Strange. It works in Opera, but in FF for me, it gives this message:

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

* This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I went into the cookie settings and added forums.microsoft.com* to the Allow list, and still get it. This is the URL I'm trying:

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/Msgs/default.aspx?MessageID=60686&SiteID=1

With that link I get "unknown error" in both browsers.

Which URL do you use to get to the forums?

 

[JohnH]

I write "msdn forums" in search and click first link which is http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/

Same thing I did.

I click your link just to be sure (in FF) and:

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

The url that shows in the urlbar when I get this message is:

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/Msgs/default.aspx?MessageID=60686&SiteID=1

Any ideas? I'd love to not have to fire up and switch between browsers just for the forums, lol.

Problem solved. Feel stupid. lol


Just cleared all microsoft cookies, and I could get there again.
