I have been unable to access even the home page for many days now:
www.unibe.ch

and in particular, the satpics, eg:
http://saturn.unibe.ch/rsbern/noaa/dw/realtime/n1b/

are sorely missed.

Sure I can get Bernard's pictures (and weatheronline, etc) later in the day.
But can anyone give me an alternative(or the correct) url for uni Bern?

Works fine from here Jack. I'm using IE6 at the moment and find it does from
time to time refuse to load regularly visited sites from my 'Favourites'
folder e.g Keith's site at Southend Weather. In these circumstances I found
that using an alternative browser such as Mozilla or Firefox from
http://www.mozilla.org/ does the trick.

All the best

This is weird. I have tried using three different browsers,
Firefox, IE and Mozilla. None will give me access to uni Bern.

My ISP is Nildram. Can a particular ISP fail to access to a particular url
when clearly different ISPs do in fact work?

Yes if their DNS is borked. Try this instead:
http://130.92.54.203/rsbern/noaa/dw/realtime/n1b/

or use this for the Universität Bern home page:
http://130.92.9.60/

Thanks for your help - now have alternative urls which work. But amazingly,
that direct link still won't play ball. Never mind. Unimportant now.

If your alternatives are numeric addresses, they are not guaranteed to
work for ever. In fact, not for more than 24 hours which is the "time to
live" that unibe.ch specify. You will need to go back to the names
eventually. Think of it as an ATIS broadcast that has a pre-defined
timeout, although the replacement may well be identical. You are sticking
to Bravo while the approaching thunderstorm now means that Delta is
current.

Is is quite possible that the problem is on your own machine, in which
case is is worth trying the appropriate procedure from he

(Not saying you have a bug or anything but) for everyone using Windows,
this is the regimen that the people who write AVG recommend for keeping
your PC clean:

First ditch all the dead files you can with Disc Cleanup.
Clear the Cache in Java Plug-in.

Update all the following and run them in this sequence.
CoolWebShredder
AdAware
Spybot Search & Destroy
AVG

Some "found" files in AVG's latest freebie need to be removed manually
due to them being stored in zipped files or other places that the
scanners can not touch.

After finding and removing any problems, re-run the format above and you
may find more. This may happen because some bugs were masked by the
scumware removed in the first pass.
