They must have been on a weak connection if pings took them down or made them slow.

There was multiples connection too. Someone was trying to kill the server. I don't know the full details, but it was a DoS attack.

The problem is that, for the most part, servers respond to requests. Send it lots of requests, and the server will get bogged down trying to process all of them.

If the server is weak, yeah.

Here's another gripe: when using the text editor, it's nearly impossible to see the cursor... Can we do something about that? :grumble:

I don't think so... I've seen the problem when using IE5/5.5/6 and now with Firefox.

This site is so screwed. :shakehead:

I've no idea. Where do I change that?

Or better yet, how do I change the color?

Control Panel -> Keyboards -> Cursor Blink Speed


color would be somewhere in the Appearence pane for your Display settings...

Thanks, but the cursor blink rate has no effect on the cursor here...

This site is screwed... :mad:

Every other phpBB site works as expected.

I wouldn't rule it out.

But I see the problem on three different PCs.

Of course, they're all mine, so again I wouldn't rule it out.

Control panel -> Keyboard properties -> Cursor blink rate slider.

or for mouse cursor

Control panel -> Mouse -> Pointers tab.


There are also alot of options in accessibility (Control panel ). They are mostly for old people and people with disabilities though.
