Did you use the direct link?
The forum category link thing has had issues ever since the forum upgrade months ago. The direct link works for me.

Isn't the direct link https://secure.cityofheroes.com/cgi-bin/coh_transfer.pl, not the one through the board? The one you have doesn't give me an error; it just gives me a black page with no content when I use the 'view source' function.

IIRC, the one you linked is the old version that doesn't work anymore.
If you get a blank, black page from that link, just refresh, or go back, and click again. Ever since the big forum maint before I18/GR's launch, that's been happening randomly around the forums (along with slow loading, random logouts, and other things).

After half a dozen reloads, it finally lit up and worked for me. Feh.

For several days now, I have been unable to access the CoH Character Copy Tool; both IE and Firefox time out on me without loading the page. I have attempted to ping the host secure.cityofheroes.com, but get no response, and have tried a traceroute to the host, but the path just goes to one of the local Cox Communications backbone hosts -- fed1.sysc10-get0005.sd.sd.cox.net -- then dies on the next hop, as if the host on the other end of the link is broken. So far, I have been unable to get someone sufficiently knowledgeable through the Cox technical support lines to understand that the problem is not with my computer, that I can access websites just fine, and that the problem is with the routing tables on the Cox host that keeps trying to route me through a dead link.
Is anyone else experiencing similar connectivity issues?
