clarkg888 Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 I can't connect to McRip's update servers with WinToolkit, but I believe I know why and I wanted to share a work-around for anyone else affected. I believe McRip won't accept connections from my IP address. I use Shaw Communications in British Columbia, Canada as my ISP. I suspect he did that to deal with whoever was attacking his site some months ago. You will know if you have the same problem if your Internet works with all other sites, but when you point your browser to http://hotfix2.cesidian.info/ you get no response at all (page doesn't load). If you get the 'NO ACCESS!' page, you do not have this problem. My work-around is to connect to a VPN service prior to running WinToolkit for updates. I used http://bestcanadavpn.com/ but I'm sure other services will work also. Clark. Stimpy 1 Quote
theduck Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Interesting... that seems to be what is happening here... will try a VPN or bouncing off another ISP or something. Thanks for the heads up! Quote
woody22 Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I'm in Québec Canada with Videotron and http://hotfix2.cesidian.info/ doesn't work. Quote
Legolash2o Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 The website can't be browsed by anyone. It will only let Win Toolkit and some other tool look at the contents. At the moment it's not even working for me in Win Toolkit. Quote
gerr139 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 It hasnt been working for me in wintoolkit for the past week or so... anyone know why? Quote
James Vang Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 VPN is a great tool to use for your anonymity. I suggest to all try different VPN provider to connect the websites. Quote
