Title: Zipzoomfly
Post by: FOGOLD on October 31, 2005, 06:36:19 AM

This is not the place I know, but when visiting Firing Squad or HardOCP I get an irritating message "Alert: The operation timed out when attempting to contact http://www.zipzoomfly.com"

I've tried various adblock settings to no avail. I use Firefox mostly. I know zipzoomfly is a retail outlet.

Any ideas. Thanks in advance!

Zip Zoom Fly is a decent outfit... just not as cheap as New Egg usually. I've used them a lot with great results. Try it again. It works here now. Or type in Zip Zoom fly in Google and go from that link. :)

are you trying to go there or does it go by itself?  by itself run a spybot, malware killer.

No I'm not trying to go there, but when I do it still doesn't properly.
It only happens on these Hardware sites (hardOCP, Firing squad etc)

Maybe somehow your network settings are screwed or the site is just down. Probably the hardware sites have banners from zipzoomfly on their board, that would be a reason why your browser tries to load it.
