Hi Christine, I've just checked my mail. Everything's ok. I run v6 if it might make a difference? Debbie

Christine, I've been having problems all night! Glad it's not just me. Just turned my computer off completely,as restarting it had no affect,and [fingers crossed] seems ok now.

hi Deb, i also have that, so don't know what's going on, i had this problem a few months ago, after a while it started running again. i've had a few emails lately with infected files, but i have norton anti-virus,and they were deleted automatically.

Hi there I had a message from my server a couple of days ago, apologising for this and saying that many sites were just clogged up with viruses whizzing around Sylvie

Hi again, Maybe it's an ISP problem. I could not access ANYTHING at all last night for about 4 hrs, but on ringing the help-line, they confirmed the problem as at their end. Have you rung your internet provider? Debbie

If you are on ntl, they are having a lot of problems, or so I have read on another forum. It happens on broadband too.

Christine, I would give it 48-72 hours, as i tried resetting everything on my computer, didn't really know what i was doing and it turned out to be the server. I am on NTL, but so is my neighbough and his worked, but I am apparently connected to one place and he connects somewhere else, so my advice is "don't try and fix it if it worked before"! I'm not very good at these things, but I have learnt not to "play"! Kim
