pcolas7 Posted February 18, 2006 at 09:10 PM Report Posted February 18, 2006 at 09:10 PM Da jia hao!! Does anybody know what happened to the UIBE website??? (http://www.uibe.edu.cn) I'm in the US and I havent been able to access it for weeks. Plus the emails I sent to people with addresses on the UIBE server have all bounced back. Thanks for any info!

gougou Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:26 AM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:26 AM I'm in Beijing, no problems whatsoever opening your link here. It seems their business is not so international after all... Quote
roddy Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:33 AM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:33 AM Odd, perhaps the US Government is blocking it because of their special section on 先进性教育 Can anyone else outside of China access it? Like gougou I can get it fine from Beijing. However when I go through my proxy (not sure of the actual location, but presumably not in China) it fails. At a guess I'd say that their webhost has, amusingly enough, decided to block international traffic to try and cut down on bandwidth usage. This happens sometimes. Roddy Quote

adrianlondon Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:29 PM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:29 PM Doesn't work in the UK. It could be dead and those in China are getting served a cached version. Quote
gougou Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:35 PM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:35 PM It could be dead and those in China are getting served a cached version.Well, the school building is still standing, I can see it from my window... Quote
adrianlondon Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:53 PM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:53 PM I don't think that taking a website offline also demolishes the physical company it belongs to :-) Quote
roddy Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:54 PM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 02:54 PM Well nip over the road and ask them what's going on I don't think it's a cached version, as there's news on there from the last few days. Quote
adrianlondon Posted February 19, 2006 at 03:43 PM Report Posted February 19, 2006 at 03:43 PM Are there any anonymous proxies for breaking IN through the great firewall of China? :-) Quote
