All of a sudden my entire forum is down at http://www.adminfuel.com
I get Content Encoding Error: The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.
I haven't edited anything, it just happened itself. I can't access ANY page of the site.
What could have happened? I haven't edited anything since the forum was last working.
EDIT: It is just happening in Firefox; I can access the site fine with IE

Are you accessing via Firefox or IE?

Wow, that was strange. I cleared all my history, cache, cookies and saved form data and now it seems to work :|.. any one know why it could have happened?

Is your GZIP HTML Output set to Yes? Because from the error you described above it looks like a double compressing case. As your server server is also using GZIP.

This hasn't happened to me before, ever; and it's just happened again. I will try accessing via IE and resetting that.

I can't even access it via IE anymore, will have to see if I can edit via the database.

I still load it fine. Can you access your acp at all?
If you can''t, then try to run this query at the phpmyadmin in the cp of your host:
UPDATE datastore SET data=REPLACE(data,'s:10:"gzipoutput";i:1;','s:10:" gzipoutput";i:0;') WHERE title='options';
And if your db tables have a prefix, don''t forget to include it in the query.
Or you can try to disable from the config.php file by adding the following code somewhere below the starting php tag.
DEFINE('NOZIP', 1);

I found the problem. It was because the database table 'session' had got too full and had 12000+ rows (im not sure how that actually happened. Any help?

Truncate it and see if that would make any difference.
