TV is a little like a Pub. We stay open until closing time. Punters, however, are free to go home when they want.

yes, I don't know about Facebook, CNN or anything else, I don't visit them or have accounts with any of them. But what I do know is that clicking into the official Thai Immigration Website last week saw my NOD32 Internet Monitor flash up an immediate warning for a dangerous java script execution. NOD32 is very good and very up to date and was telling me this script was known 'malware'. I erminated the running of the script and by doing so was able to still browse the info I was looking for. Where the danger lies, is that there is a java script Pop Up, about the new government offices in Laksi when you enter the site so you have what is a 'legal' script executing, followed immediately by another illegal one. Thank god for NOD 32. I wonder how many machines out there have been compromised? #203Posted 2010-01-10 21:11:57
As of 20:00 tonight I've been unable to access yahoo.com. Site being redirected to w3.mict.go.th . Problem is, It's probably overloaded cause I get a time out. I'm unable to get my e-mails. How many people out there is this affecting ?? No problem with other sites such as CNN facebook or twitter.
browser: firefox, service provider: 3BB #204Posted 2010-01-10 21:32:04

Same problem here. 9.32pm, True Internet in Bangkok.
Yahoo's main page loads up, but click on the link for mail (or enter it directly in address bar) and gets diverted to w3.mict.go.th before turning up a "problem loading page". Facebook seems to work. As does hotmail. Why is yahoo being targeted like this? Just system overload? Why would it redirect to MICT if that were the case? #206Posted 2010-01-10 21:37:40
Looking at Yahoo, and hotmail and CNN and TVF simultaneously.
Ah, just added Facebook too. No issues. Edited by animatic, 2010-01-10 21:42:04. #208Posted 2010-01-10 21:49:09
Just accessed both yahoo mail and hotmail with no problems. true/bkk

interesting to put this on a news ticker without checking it. It could have been the Nation they too never check facts. Regards PS By the by I can ping facebook.com 69.63.184.142 fine, but on the same machine I get mict.go.th in browser. Same thing happened to me when I searched with Opera. But when you search with Google you can log in. I have TT&T. Edited by bellste, 2010-01-10 22:10:38. #211Posted 2010-01-10 22:04:22
I forgot , 3bb in ChiangMai , Mozilla Thunderbird is unable to retrieve e-mail from yahoo.ca , Gmail ok. Have been trying to reconfigure Thunderbird but it's not able to get the settings for email imports. On the scale of 1 to 10 this is a 10 for problems. Does anyone have any ideas on alternate ways of retrieving mail from yahoo !!
