The Site for every freesmfhosting has said the same thing for at least 12 hours.....

Dns Changes will take up to 24 hours for certain people to be able to get to the forums.

Windows by default keeps DNS information for 24 hours.
If you really can't wait you can try typing ipconfig /flushdns  in a command prompt

Then you may be able to access your site.  If not, please be patient and give it some time.

I saw the messaage from simply sibyl and founder the sites are back up. This site is still showing "server transfer" will be online shortly and cannot get on.

Can you please advise if all sites are back up or if there are still issues? Thank you

The transfer was done last evening around 10:30pm my time for freesmfhosting.   It is now 1pm my time.
It takes 24 hours for the DNS to change on some computers so you need to give it at least 24 hours to see the change.   As mentioned earlier in the thread you can "try" to manually flush the dns by typing ipconfig /flushdns  in a command prompt.   It may or may not work for you.  If it does not please be patient as it has not been 24 hours yet :)


edit:  discovered I was mistaken, hiding my head in a hole now   :uglystupid2:   Forums were moved this morning so give it lots more time
