When using Telstra Broadband Protect (Australian Telco web filtering) adding www.dropbox.com and cfl.dropboxstatic.com to the Broadband Protect allowed sites list fixed this problem for me. (Make sure you click on the save button at the bottom of the screen after adding sites to the list). Thank you linda a.16 for solving this one.

I don't see how using Dropbox to host your CSS file will be any faster than hosting it directly on your website's server. In fact, I would think it might even be slower than an actual web host.
Remember, Dropbox is not meant to be used as a web host. An actual web host running Apache, IIS or some other software meant for web hosting is the better solution.

Hey nikhilcartoon - sorry to hear you're having this issue.
Have you tried switching browsers, clearing your browser's cache or even an incognito window (for Chrome) or Private browsing window ( for Mozilla Firefox and Safari) ?
Let me know what you find and we'll take it from there if needed. Thanks!

Respected Walter sir,
Thank you, sir, that you replied to me. : ) Sir, as per your instructions I tried all these browsers clearing cache, using incognito mode, IE, firefox, safari, chrome, duck duck go, over mobile browser it works fine no error ( same as before) but the problem is on laptop and desktop sir.
The reason behind using Dropbox as a host is only to increase the speed of my website sir, but after hosting the CSS file over Dropbox the speed remains the same sir.

You have your CSS file on Dropbox and you're linking to it directly? If so, make sure you're using a Share Link to the file and that you change the ?dl=0 at the end of the link to ?raw=1. Also note that while certain file types can be hosted in this manner, others—like HTML—are not supported.

sir,
Sir, I am following all your instructions and still I am in trouble, sir. The website loads fine though there is no any change in loading time so. Please guide me, sir. I tried to minify the CSS but still the website not loading fast.
