Blank page of doom

Bookmarking works. No more blank screen of doom

There’s some bug that can affect macs because of the software they use. I think the bug is called shellshock or something and it affects bosh software? It sounds really nasty so just be aware.

When I go to the internet and type http://www.oncepodcast.com its doesn’t work for me unless I go through google or go through pages that I’ve already bookmarked. I thought it was just my computer acting up glad I’m not the only one with problems. Its been like this for the last 5 days for me at least on both Chrome and Explorer

It seems to be a general problem, just checked with www. in the url address and get the blank page as well, regardless what pc or browers. Noticed it shows a different ip, the url doesn’t resolve to the right ip address. So just use oncepodcast.com as address, no www, and it should work at the moment. (if you go via google search, what you get is https://oncepodcast.com) David pretty sure will take care of it as he said.

Shellshock is a bug exploiting unix bash shell, making it possible for hackers to execute code. At the moment that is mostly a huge headache to system administrator, because plenty of servers run on unix. If you run linux, ubuntu as operating system (OS) on your pc, you should look for a patch. Mac OSX is basically vulnerable too, but at the moment to really worry you have to work with advanced unix settings, and that is not what average users do. But Apple has released an update to be on the safer side. There had been some worries as well about iOS (ipad, iphone) and Android, they basically are vulnerable, but as with Max OSX security expert say, that so far average users don’t need to worry, most devices are still not exploitable. If anything you should check your wireless router, see if there is an update, a patch released for that.

So, just make sure to have your favorite towel always close, and otherwise relax and let others worry. Don’t panic. 😉

Is this still happening?

Works like a charm for me, gets now the same IP. Tested with manual http://www.oncepodcast.com/forum, normal pc browser /wlan and mobile provider, outside US, just in case, all good.
