Metcheck problems

[Kirstie]

Everytime I try to load metcheck (www.metcheck.com) for the weather forecast I get this message and have done so for the last few days:

Redirect Loop

Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested page. This may be caused by cookies that are blocked.

Is anyone else having the same problem? I know nothing about computers so is there anything I can do from my end or is the site just broken? Anyone know?
Thanks

I've tried it and got the following message:-

"If you are female, you might find this site a bit difficult for you and we suggest that you ask a man to help you................."

Looks like we had some bugs running around the website today: rest assured, Pest Control have been in and made sure they're well and truly squashed so the site should now be back to normal.
Thanks to those of you who informed us.From metcheck site seems ok now

Phew! Swearing isn't as bad as being hunted down in my Blaenau Festiniog bunker.

He's a bit bored- the usual P&L lefties have gone a bit quiet over the holiday period, but they'll be back at work tomorrow, so there will be plenty of posting to keep him busy then.

I have noticed that those in the public sector only post during work hours.

...I worked it out.
I deleted the cookies and now it works.
I'm reet clever, me (for a girl).

Metcheck has gone a bit crap anyway.

Works for me. I tend to rely upon it.

Ditto....

Um..Sorry, but you may want to read this.

I'm afraid Andrew Bond is no longer in a position to run Metcheck and I guess the rest of the team have lost interest.

This should explain why Metcheck is running on auto pilot and is not being updated.

OMG. Awful.

as alternatives I've found these two to be good:-

(just need to get your local weather bookmarked for the last one)

Bearing in mind the awful stuff in the link I don't think I'll bother with metcheck.
