Markus - to speed things up all the way around we have several dedicated servers. The forum is now on http://oralcancersupport.org ...... you are taking the long way around. The OCF store is now on www.ocfstore.org which is a highly encrypted system tied to our financial processing partners and which protects your financial privacy. The only thing on www.oralcancerfoundation.org is the main site. Which by the way there is a mirror site to so you can type less, and that is www.oralcancer.org The news database is now on http://oralcancernews.org/wp/2009 which is a custom designed word press site that looks like the rest of OCF. All this makes things run fast, if one thing goes kaput the whole thing does not go down, and it gets spidred on Goggle like crazy.

TO THE NON OBSERVANT USER, this all seems seamless, but it is on different machines, some dedicated some not. Please note the universal announcement when all this started, was posted by Chester quite awhile ago. But you really don't notice the url changing as everything looks the same as you navigate around different parts of OCF. Actually quite brilliant.... but that's why we keep Chester busy.
