GoDaddy Serves Blank Pages to Safari & Opera

zackmac writes "For over two weeks domain registrar GoDaddy has been serving blank pages to Safari and Opera users who attempt to access sites using its domain forwarding and masking service. GoDaddy is blaming Apple as the source of the problem, and with nowhere to turn, Mac users are flocking to Apple's support forums to discuss the issue in-depth. Apple has so far been unresponsive and GoDaddy has directed affected customers to contact Apple Support. An inconvienent workaround is to open the website first in Firefox or Internet Explorer and then the page will load in Safari or Opera. Speculation abounds as to the cause of the problem and how to fix it. The current belief is malformed headers, an invalid 302 header with a bogus location and a redirect loop."

    Well it takes a surfboard the size of CVN-65 Enterprise, but she can just manage it with a stiff breeze. *

    oh... the web. No. She can't do that.

    * Yes I know she's in her "waning" phase and not particularly fat right now, but just wait.
