For me they all seem to be working if the URL is formatted http://www.flyertalk.com/ but not if it's formatted http://flyertalk.com/
Of course, all my bookmarks use the later syntax.

I use the www format and certainly is not working consistently for me. What is working, though, at least for me, is navigating by the forum jump at the bottom of the page.

The drop-down forum jump at the bottom of the page seems to allow access to all the forums. I just checked it out on CO and no problem, ditto CommunityBuzz (which I still can't access using the links).

Paste this as the web address and you should be good to surf from there: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/index.php
I couldn't get anything else to work with IE or Chrome.

Firefox recovery
I had problems with Firefox downloading a file which then rendered to junk.
Restarted browser and PC, but finally had to give in and clear private data (cookies, saved content, the whole enchilada).
Works now, though. Glad to be rid of IE and back on Firefox again.

Everything except for the general OMNI link works. I've done the clear private data thing several times.
