Proxy Error??
I was entering a poem for Sarah just now, and when I clicked "Submit" it gave me a proxy error! I lost my whole poem. Does anyone know what causes this/why it happened?

Proxy is a server that allows you to access the web, do you happen to be in a country out of the US and probably UK? that may have caused an interference or something, that might have happened even if you were in those two country's. I think it just means that you weren't able to connect to pixie hollow forum's server that allows you to post things. That is what i think anyway.

Oh, I'm in the U.S.A. and I was doing this on the PH site, entering for the Pixie Postings. Sorry for not being clear. Thanks though, Bayberry!

Cat, are you using Mozilla Firefox as your internet browser? This may be the cause of some interference.
Mozilla Firefox is a free, open source Web browser. Unlike competing products, such as Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, Firefox does not always rely on global Windows settings for network configuration and connectivity. While Firefox does allow users more freedom to personalize the browser, some tweaks can create conflicts with Windows settings, including proxy server conflicts. WHAT IS A PROXY ERROR: General Definition Proxy errors signify that an Internet user is not allowed to visit a specific website or URL. This restriction is set by the Internet administrator of the organization or by the website/URL creator to protect private content, which is only meant to be viewed by specific people. Cause Proxy errors occur after you or your organization configures its main proxy ISA server to filter HTTP content based on extensions or signatures. As such, when you or any employee of the organization attempts to visit certain URLs on the Internet, the organization's main proxy server creates a proxy error message. Fix To avoid getting proxy error messages in the future, configure the HTTP Filter component by removing all extensions and signatures settings from the HTTP Filter settings. Change the settings to allow all extensions and signatures. I hope this explains a little. ~Lily |
