Hi it is IE6, reported on other boards that people are experieing slow log on etc, will give it a go with firefox and get back.

Cheers for the quick response.

 

[Windy21]

Still the same!

Maybe its your ISP's cache or a dns problem

Got this off another site:

Customers throughout Scotland may currently be unable to access secure webpages through their Virgin Media Broadband Internet. This may include sites such as Webmail, any online e-mail accounts and Online Banking services. Our engineers are currently investigating this issue.

Virgin Media would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

PS apparently because of the fight with sky if you contact them and kick up a fuss over losing SKyONE the are offering deals to keep you even if you are all ready in a contract.

That cant have anything to do with sky. Itll be the encrypted lines will be getting regected by there hubs

Never said it had to do with SKY, just saying that because of all the hassle at the moment if you threaten to go elsewhere, they are offer deals to keep you at Virgin.

What ISP are you with? If you are on ADSL then ebay can sometimes be hit with a caching problem - changing the MTU settings on your router / PC (if you use a modem) can help cure it.

I'll look for a link...

 

[Timbo]

The problem happens a lot with TalkTalk ADSL users with certain routers etc...

Have a read

All back up and running, Viring must have found a new rubber band for their machine.

Thanks again for all the advice.: multi :
