It was probably the 'Suspicious date' causing the problem! Maybe caused by the month changing. It should be ok if you adjust your computer clock back a day.

I got it on my iPhone so I doubt mr gates has any say over that.

getjjhone786 · 01-04-2011 07:39AM

I like the Bill Clinton one best but I think we need a Don King entry.

"Suspicious date in timestamp" sounds...suspicious.

Got it too, I was about to ring my I.T. dept and complain that I couldnt browse Boards.ie instead of working

mconigol · 01-04-2011 08:39AM

In fairness my first reaction was "So they've finally shut it down!"
More surprised that it hadn't happened already to be honest!

johndoe99 · 01-04-2011 08:42AM

conorhal · 01-04-2011 08:44AM

Looks like a boards April fool's gag to me.

Oh the sheer moment of panic I experienced when I though that our IT department had finally nailed one of my favorite ways to waste company time during work!

hal9000 · 01-04-2011 08:58AM

I get nothing with netscape navigator

pow wow · 01-04-2011 09:02AM

I do with Safari. har har.

gman2k · 01-04-2011 09:07AM

Me too, and Bill Gates actually rang me up about it to apologise. I wasn't sure if it was him though cos of the date and all that. I told him I really liked his new Apple Ipad and hung up. Fool.
