Clean installs don't just 'stop working' one morning

Something, somewhere, changed. You will need to isolate what. Sometimes a browser plugin will be upgraded causing a problem, or a host will upgrade your php version or move your site, or change their software.

I would try (in order).
a: Try different browser (one or more browser plugins may be the problem)
b: Clear the CMSMS cache
c: Disable FCKEditor
- I have very HUGE doubts that you downloaded this from the CMSMS forge or ModuleManager and that it works with CMSMS 1.11.
d: Use Standard Content Pages instead of AdvancedContent
- I know there are problems with UDT's and this module.
e: Check all of your UDT's and custom plugins
- Does everything work with a minimal template and a standard content page?
if so, then I would suspect it's a UDT issue.
f: Contact your host to see what they changed.

Hmmm well its fixed it self dident change anything.

had tried the first 2 things on the list already.

installed the editor using modual manager.

then again is the scripting linked to this site as whilst been having issues with this forum and site could not edit then all of a sudden the site started to work then i could edit on my site again? very strange.

There is no connection between an installed version of CMSMS and cmsmadesimple.org (except for when you go to Extensions -> Module Manager when your site grabs available modules for your installed version). When editing content, for example, there is no link.

That's not exactly correct. Once per day, a CMSMS install will call home to check for new versions of the core. Basically the first admin request per day. However, the timeout set for this transaction is 10 seconds. After which, it should continue like normal.
