Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load It is super slooooow. I am trying this with the intend to buy the Co-brander subscription and although I like all the features, I am concern that the system being so slow is not going to work out for my needs. Is this a current performance issue or the norm? Thanks! |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load
This is NOT the norm. But it does seem to happen about every year or so for several days. Then the sys op gets back from vacation and everything is wonderful for a year or two. Usually Support will comment here about what is going on. This time: radio silence. |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load We are experiencing unacceptably slow page loading of our calendar. Popups come up blank. Even the back end editing page is extremely slow. This happens on PCs and Macs and multiple browsers. We just paid for another year of premium service! Is there some way to get in touch with a tech support or customer service person at LoCalendar to address this problem??? |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load The website has been so slow that I can watch a youtube video of 5 minutes and it's still loading. This makes it impossible to work with the calendar. |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load Agreed. Still unusable at this speed, which is frustrating for us premium members that pay for the service! |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load We randomly get DOS (Denial-of-service) attacks, and the past several days have been particularly bad. We implemented some countermeasures on our side, and today performance is back to normal. The unfortunate circumstance though is that an attacker can switch to a different bot-net or set of IPs in the future and try again. It's a constant cat-and-mouse game. ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load Hi Marc, Glad to see you are back. The website is very snappy now. Can't figure out what anybody has to gain from a DOS attack on a calendar. I spent my wait time trying to find another calendar. What I found is that you guys are the best! I am going to get a paid subscription even though I don't need anything beyond the free version. Thanks and keep up the good work! - Don P.S. I am glad you are still around and taking care of the website. I started to get worried you had moved on. |

Re: Website Performance Problem - Pages Very Slow to Load Still here :) I think any time a site has an id/password it is a target. And I also think b/c we have been around so long (20+ years) we are just "in the rotation". I believe attackers are after whatever information they can get. If it were possible to get users' ids and passwords (and our pws are encrypted and salted, so there is no treasure to be had here anyway) a criminal might then try the credentials on other sites that are more valuable (like bank sites, stock trading sites, etc). So it's a good reminder to not to use the same password across multiple sites - and always choose strong ones, too  ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |
