Can't reach MalwareTips or anything else on the internet right now?

It's @Cloudflare

Can this affect VPN providers as well in terms of slow VPN connection?

 

[L0ckJaw]

No issues here ( BD VPN and no VPN )

This morning I confirm there was a problem with the forum. Now it is ok.

Today, June 21, 2022, Cloudflare suffered an outage that affected traffic in 19 of our data centers. Unfortunately, these 19 locations handle a significant proportion of our global traffic. This outage was caused by a change that was part of a long-running project to increase resilience in our busiest locations. A change to the network configuration in those locations caused an outage which started at 06:27 UTC. At 06:58 UTC the first data center was brought back online and by 07:42 UTC all data centers were online and working correctly.

Depending on your location in the world you may have been unable to access websites and services that rely on Cloudflare. In other locations, Cloudflare continued to operate normally.

We are very sorry for this outage. This was our error and not the result of an attack or malicious activity.

Is the site running slow for anyone today or is it just me?

Naah not here anyway, but personal I complain on my ISP not giving me 1K Mbps. Only around 800 is terrible!

I am starting to think it is a DNS issue on my end. We shall see.

I'll check what is going on. No issues on my end. You could try Cloudflare DNS, it is fast.

 

[Trooper]

I changed from NextDNS to Cloudflare already. Still slow.

Not having any slowdowns. Did you clear both Windows and Browser DNS cache after changing DNS?

That's Cloudflare's Firewall, it is something that is seen as malicious in the message or attachment (False positive). I'll look into what's going on....

 

[harlan4096]

That's right, in concrete the problem in this case is in the word "c m d . exe" in Your text

I also got similar issues...

Depends on the country i guess..

Try DNS jumper as Software, run it and test it which one is faster

 

[Trooper]

Site is slow again for me tonight.

Jack,

I keep getting this message when I am browsing the forum. This happens at random times, especially when I open a thread in a new tab. I think it's Ublock causing it because that's the only extension I have installed currently. This happens only when using Edge. I click reload and it works after that. Just letting you know.

I cannot reproduce this. Coud you stop the Ublock for this site and see if it's still happening. Thank you!

 

[Gandalf_The_Grey]

It doesn't happen when I disable uBlock.

Have a look at your filter lists.
Any custom ones you added that could be the cause?

 

[forgottenuser79643]

One of the first things I'd do is to go to uBlock Origins Dashboard, and under 'My Filters' tab, press 'purge all caches' and subsequently 'update now'. Let it do it's thing, and double-check if an update failed on a filter. If it does, repeat the steps until it doesn't and reboot the browser.

Most often, that fixes such random behaviour for me.
