Check your browser settings Jeff and try accessing the site/links using a different browser. There was some recent Firefox patch that caused a (different) site to suddenly become inaccessible to me because of some anomaly with its site certificate. But there was absolutely no indication of why the site wouldn't come up, and it appeared to be down/offline because I could still access other sites. It wasn't until I tried a different browser on a whim that I realized that it was a browser issue. If memory serves I made the site trusted or an exception and I was able to access it again. Also h-online-com issues its own and another etracker.de tracking cookie, and if your browser isn't accepting those cookies (or allowing some of the site's javascript to execute) perhaps that could play into your site access problem. Good luck, Vic ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 31 Dec 2012 19:43:54 -0500 From: Jeffrey Walton <noloader () gmail com> To: FunSec List <funsec () linuxbox org> Subject: [funsec] Problems with H-Online Security?

I have not been able to read articles from their last 3 emailings (2 or 3 weeks). I tried to track the problem down with their webmaster, but we could not find anything wrong. Pings and mail went through fine. It appears it lmited to HTTPand HTTPS (I did not try other protocols). Here's a link that can be used to test if you have a morbid curiosity: https://www.h-online.com/security/news/item/29C3-successful-attack-on-encrypting-hard-drives-1775111.html.
