It's OK, honestly... I haven't gone mad, and you're not all banned!  If you've seen this notice all day today (Thursday) then it means you're using Internet Explorer and you haven't been able to access the site all day! It's a problem that our new web hosts are working to fix! Strangely... People using Mozilla Firefox don't know what we're talking about and have been able to access the site as usual.  -----------------  Authorised Pro9 forum advertiser/sponsor

Well... Pro9.co.uk is back online and has been all day long... But there are some people (quite a few actually) that still can't visit the web site yet!
If you know any of them, you could cut and paste this message for them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
If you're still seeing that !!-! ACCESS DENIED !-!! message it's because your computer is looking at an image of Pro9 stored on your computer in it's temporary files!
This is something your computer does, to speed up your Internet surfing experience. It will automatically renew the image at some time in the future, but to get your computer to load the Pro9 page from the Internet now, you may need to do the following...
Open Internet Explorer and look along the top row of menus until you see "File / Edit / View / Favourites / Tools / Help". Click on "Tools", then click on "Internet Options".
In the "General" tab, the middle block is called "Temporary Internet Options" - this is where the pages you view on the Internet are stored. Clicking on "Delete Files" may sound scary, but it just deletes those images that you've browsed before, thus forcing your computer to reload it next time you are on the Internet, rather than using the old saved image.
Try loading www.pro9.co.uk after that, but I had to click on "Delete Cookies..." too, before I could see Pro9. Cookies are little bits of information saved on your computer, that help your computer navigate around some web pages.
If all this sounds a bit technical, it isn't, but if you don't want to attempt this simple procedure, rest assured that it'll sort itself out given a little more time.

Alternatively I believe you can just hold down the shift key whilst clicking on the refresh screen button in Explorer which will grab the latest page from the server, not temp files....

Yeah, F5 didn't work for me... I had to delete cookies and temp internet files.
