Hello,

The forum is telling me about all 5 minutes this message for about 30 seconds:
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /english/viewtopic.php on this server.

Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.17 with Suhosin-Patch Server at www.purebasic.fr Port 80
What is going on there? :? :cry:

It is far less than 10 requests per second. I just open many links in many tabs, but not 10 at once! Maybe the connection of the browser to the forum stays alive then?!

Phpbb uses sessions IIRC ?

so while you have 10 tabs, the forum sees 10 connections??

A session is a cookie over many connections ;-) . Google Chrome for example is running each tab in a new process and they can't share connections.

Okay, I found out that without Adblock, Personal Blocklist and User Agent Switcher it seems to work better.
