Hi, that is very strange but I am getting the same message. It could be that their server is down (for maintenance or something else), and they are not pointing to the correct error page (if so, some developer will get spanked).
Will have to monitor it the next few hours.

well that's cool I am not the only one...I too will keep checking on it...

I got the same thing. Googled it and found this:

www.rense.com...

I'm getting it too.

By the looks of it, the admins forgot to "chmod" the directory and contents. That is, assuming they are using a unix/linux server. It's a command to allow or deny public viewing basically. Lot's of servers require it be manually done for the sake of high security.

Sounds like they may have upgraded or switched servers.

I hope that's the case. Rense has always been a daily visit for me since the 1990s and I would hate to have to miss their colorful headlines for too long.

There has been maybe 5 occasions that their site has been down for any length of time. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

It's back up!

One liners stink but the answer could only be one line.

Yep, they most likely oops when taking the server offline for updating forgetting to re-grant access , ie chmod and the access violation error.

When this does happen though, you can grab the cached page from google since Rense's page is comprised of static links anyway and just read the information from the links themselves.

at least it's back up and running.


thanks to all who replied !!
