    The Avast Forum, https://forum.avast.com, has been inaccessible for more than 2 weeks. Either Avast is oblivous or it doesn't care. Has no one a contact at Avast to bring this mess to its attention?

    I can view the page and the threads, but can't login. Is that what you mean?

    Just had a look, takes 5 or 6 seconds to load then it's ok. Have you tried a different browser etc ?

    Yes, the page can be loaded, but can you login to post?

    I'm not a member there, it's probably to only time I've been there.
    Are you a member and cannot login, what error if any do you get?

    Yes, I'm a member. When I click "Login" using Vivaldi it just times out. If I use Edge I can reach the login screen and enter my credentials; then it times out :cool:

    No problems here with FF. I cannot log in because I don't have an account there, but the site loads instantly for me.

    Can you click the conversation headers and read the threads?

    I can still reach the Avast forum. Their website still loads instantly for me (FF and MS Edge). Strange.

    This is also my guess. I'm currently in Germany.

    The only response I get from https://forum.avast.com is : -
    "An error occurred while processing your request.
    Reference #102.a47232b8.1676913157.1b11a358"

    I see in comments here that others are also experiencing this.

    Anyone know how to rattle Avast's cage? It seems oblivious. Its servers and DNS need to be checked out. I use OpenDNS.

    It worked one day but not the next. I have tried accessing it with Windows and Android devices. I changed no settings.
