424916 2006-11-29 02:39:00 Hi, I have found a way to get into Trademe By useing www.hidemyway.com,Would one really want to send ones trademe user name and password out via a service designed by and for the dubious whose needs are to not be accountable for ones actions on the net? personthingy (1670)

424918 2006-11-29 03:17:00 I was only trying to help but i don't care I'm sure you's will find another way Sorry for my troubleThe original problem appeared to have been a DNS problem, It appeared some ISPs were effectively redirecting ones request to take one to trade me to oblivion. This is over now. DNS entry's are up to date.
:)

What you are doing is bypassing a firewall so you can use trade-me at your school or workplace. Trademe is probably not normally possible as the organizations firewall is configured to block certain sites, such as porn, hot mail or trade-me.

If you bypass firewalls in this way that is your own karma.. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD SEND ANY IMPORTANT PASSWORD OUT VIA THESE PROXY SITES AS THEY MAY STEAL THEM.

OK, maybe i'm paranoid, but that would be a good way for a scumbag to make coin out of the pockets of the site users wouldn't it?

424919 2006-11-29 04:12:00 Proxify, Hide My Way, MegaProxy... all have a purpose, but getting _into_ trademe is not ideal. Typing it into one of those just to confirm it actually IS up and alive, yes, but auctioning with it.. I just wouldnt go there.

Ive had a LOT of people bitching at me lately "this doesnt work now", most of them Xtra customers, a few ihug customers like me... Ive just told them all to switch to Orcons DNS servers:
60.234.1.1
60.234.2.2

And their problems just magically go away!

Apparently those are relatively new DNS servers too.. work perfect every time for me!

Welcome to Press F1, mikikeka.

Kiwigirl joined the forum on 28 January last year, made 12 postings that day & hasn't been heard of since.

So it's good to know you got some help from that old thread.
I hope she's still around somewhere to read your compliment.
But I wouldn't count on it by now.

Maybe you'll stick around longer?
