Mulitple gun vendors giving security warning

[Arizona_Mike]

This is happening both at home last night and at work today.

This request has been denied for security reasons. If you believe this was in error, please contact support.

That's far too vague for anyone to be of help .

Yeah, I'm with Jorg; I can't tell what you're referring to. What kind of security warning? For what? And what kind of request?

 

[Arizona_Mike]

I'm not looking for help but I suspect that one of the web commerce providers that caters to gun part companies may be having problems or under a DoS attack. The error message I quoted verbatim is the the only message displayed in plain text when visiting the web pages.

A couple of the sites currently having the issue are (there were others as well):
http://www.magtacticalsystems.com/
http://www.2a-arms.com

I can get to both those home pages and browse their stuff. The pages come up quickly, right now at 4:40 pm CDT Wed. Possibly related to Time Warner's big outage yesterday?

2a-arms came up much faster in IE 8 than Mag did.
Mag even took a long time with Firefox. I'm on DSL and only get 0.8-1.2 mbps.

Were you doing this from home, or at a business, library, or hot spot? Some places may block "undesireable" web sites. Gun and weapon sites are a favorite block.

Both pages loaded quickly and normally for me

 

[Arizona_Mike]

Seems fine today. Probably traffic control on the server end.

Indeed.
