What's happened to pistonheads.com?

[blackmonday]

The only area of Pistonheads I can connect to is the Gassing Station. Any other page including the hompepage results in a pop-up asking me to download a file!?

Strange. Even the home page?

What browser are you using?

[blackmonday]

Windows:
MSN Premium 9.0.13.2101
Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1644

It was working earlier today when I was using my Mac's.

The only section of Pistonheads I can access page under www.pistonheads.com/gassing/

Any thing at www.pistonheads.com/ results in a pop-up that says:

You are downloading the file: www.pistonheads (5.38 KB) from www.pistonheads.com

There are three options - save the file, dowload later or cancel. all three options result in a blank page. Refresh results in the same. Very strange error, I've not seen this happen before and it was working earlier in the day on the same PC with the same browser that it now fails to work.

This is Windows so I'm guessing a restart will fix the problem, but it's curious and worthy of mentioning anyhow.

Thanks, I have seen this before - it's related to HTTP compression. Let me know if it persists after a reboot.

Restart seems to have done the trick.
