Bayt.com Site Down? Jun 27, 2006
I haven't been able to connect to Bayt.com for 10 days. I have tried multiple computers, different browsers, even a foreign proxy, but can't reach their servers.

Anyone else having difficulty with their site? I am still getting daily updates in my email.

Thanks.

Fine for me. What happens when you try this URL?

You did the usual computer fixits? Clear cache, cookies, restart, sledgehammer?

Connecting to remote host....
Error, could not connect to remote server.

Yep, I have tried everything, even routing through a proxy in another country in case Bayt blocked the country where I am staying. I will try an internet cafe in case it is a problem iwth my DSL company.

Thanks for checking for me. :D

I found the problem. Bayt is blocking countries. I was able to get in by using a proxy server in Turkey. I have no idea why they want to block applicants in Asia.

Very good. Thanks for the warning. Just a small clarification would be appreciated...

Exactly how are they a scam?

I've had 2 job offers through Bayt. I'd like to know why you think they are a scam?

Mandeep works with www.jobsindubai.com and his company is the mother of all scammers.

Bayt is valid and legal and I know one HR consulting frum that operate closly with Mercer who uses bayt from time to time.

NitroGlobal Proxy Accelerator Oct 10, 2006
Hi,

Nitroglobal is a client/server based accelerator system based out of Singapore, and we have had large numbers of people from the UEA and other local areas using the system as an anonymous proxy.

Because it is not a standard proxy and requries a client to be installed, it cannot be tested using traditional proxy testers and therefore is less likely to be banned.

Anyone can get a free trial of the system by visiting http://download.nitroglobal.com and registering with your e-mail.
