Late last night there was some server work going on. Sorry about that.

I'm also getting 400's this morning while trying to browse through a proxy server. The request seems to be refused due to header size. Everything works fine through my phone.

[Larry Callahan]

Is the number you see 400 or 404 or???

[Rhino]

They were all 400.

Bad Request
Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

I finally had a chance to look at things a little closer. When I bypassed the proxy it was still causing issues. I did a packet capture and it looked like it was requesting a ton of info from the cookies, most of which wasn't really needed. After clearing old cookies for PT.com it seems to work fine now.

Phew. Man this new version of vbulletin is full of problems.
