Today I am not able to access the forum on my mac laptop. I can access the college confidential main site, just not the discussion board. I get a “bad server” message. This has never happened before.
I’m on a PC now,and everything works fine on here. Please tell me that my laptop will be able to access the discussion boards soon! - I hope my Mac server didn’t get cut our somehow when you updated your servers. Thanks.
ASAP
The forum software hasn’t changed at all. Maybe your laptop cached a bad IP address?
I’ll try this, tanman, thanks.
RDooley - how would something like that happen? It’s been working well for months, and this afternoon even the 'History" where I’ve been before comes up with the same problem.<br>
My mac-savvy son is backpacking for the week, so I’m on my own. 
Thanks for the suggestions.
Hmmm.
This is what I get:
"Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."
(then a bunch of cookie numbers)
Apache/2.20 (Unix) DAV/2PHP/4.4.2 Server at talk.collegeconfidential.com Port 80
Any reason the site wouldn’t recognize Safari?
Clear your cookies and the browsers temp internet cache.
Maybe it’s Safari’s problem. I can’t seem to clear the cache even following the directions. I press “clear” on the tab and nothing happens.
I can get to the “classic” version of the discussion, but I get the Bad Request even if I press the link to the “New college discussion” forum.
I’ve tried all the cached stuff as well as trying to go through my “history” and continue to get the same response. Weird.
Yes! Removing all the cookies did the trick. Thanks so much, Anthony and all!
ASAP
Glad it worked. Sometimes you just have to toss your cookies! 
Your welcome, cookies do get corrupted at times.
Now my mind is filled of vomitting laptops. Do they vomit out chips? Wire?
I am greatly disturbed.
this has happened to me as well. however, when i try the second time, i get through to the discussion forums.
