When I try to get onto Clarefm.ie I automatically get re-routed to a weather site, there is also a note saying 'this domain has expired'. Presuming there are Clare fm listeners here, is anyone else having this problem? I can't believe they have failed to pay any fees owed!
kk, I clicked on your link and it stayed for about a 20 seconds. It can't be my computer because it 'goes off on one' on my daughters too...maybe it's my location...strange!!
It seems like bad web design to me. When I actively stop the page from loading before it jumps to the weather page, I notice a box on the top left that says "County Clare's Weather loading". My guess is that the web designer accidentally wrote the code to open this weather information in the existing browser window, rather than in the layer within in the page. I suspect they'll fix it once they figure out what is going on.
just rang them and they are working on the problem right now.
Was hoping to download the Kitchen Session from Tulla and last weeks trad programmes - really brilliant stuff - 10 hours of listening!

The same thing happened to me. I didn't even get the 20 seconds, I only got the weather site.

OMG! Clare fm has been hijacked! Very malicious piece of work too.

Re: What happened to Clare FM
And using a Google search to get a link to somewhere other than the home page doesn't work help either.

Re: What happened to Clare FM
Its not just a weather site, it opens up all sorts of pages. I just had to kill 6 or 8 of them, coming up almost as fast as I could close them.

Re: What happened to Clare FM
http://www.clarefm.ie/ or http://clarefm.ie work absolutely fine for me, but I'm in Ireland. Maybe some odd filtering process is in action?

Re: What happened to Clare FM
The weather has obviously blown half the graphics from the home page!

...then you get flicked over to here:
http://www.get-weather.com/?citycode=EIXX0016&prvtof=8b2VkUqfXDCVzkFIuQ54OZ%2F8AapTB7US31f2WdL8z48uvEY%2Fgf0Ujr2M
it's a bit like tryin' to get to the door of the pub in a strong gale.

Re: What happened to Clare FM
Got the same problem here in France. I also get redirected to this "weather" page.
This sucks.

Someone needs to write in. Web designers are incredibly lazy at times. AT TIMES, I said...

Re: What happened to Clare FM
I think this is the culprit:
window.top.location = "http://www.get-weather.com/?citycode=EIXX0016";;
in loadweather.php

Re: What happened to Clare FM
Anybody have problems with www.rte.iw? I get a 403 there.

Re: What happened to Clare FM
Sorry, that's www.rte.ie
# Posted on March 2nd 2009 by snorre
Re: What happened to Clare FM
I also get the weather page.
But when I disable javascript in the browser and reload, I get ClareFM.
