I.E and Mozilla won't load anything for me, except the home page and mylot. I'm pretty much alienated from other sites and the page keeps saying problem loading page. I was doing the lot since just now, and went over on the homepage to check out other sites, do my blog etc. And that's when I found out about this. Anyone having problems, or is it just me alone? There was this Mozilla update just now, but puzzlingly why I.E is affected too. It was alright just a few hours before; only this hour or so, I'm having this problem. So friends, I pretty much have the lot on for now. Even Facebook won't load for me. Shaks.

I am sorry to hear that. I use internet explorer exclusively so I have not seen this problem. I hope you were able to get it fixed. Did you do the update that it asked for? Have you tried to do a system restore?

Good idea there, steph. The update is automatic, because firstly I shut off the PC and on it again. Then when I log on to Firefox, it automatically update the version for me. So I thought things will be fine, but the thing still keeps on churning without being able to go anywhere. And I'm just stuck here, and can't check my email too.

The problem is either from your network or your computer has viruses that are destroying some programs in your system.

Really? I kind of suspect this too. Will a system restore work?

hi zed I have been having problems here on mylot loading taking just f orever then it will clear up for ten or twenty minutes and then do it again. I am using firefox too, and went to IE and it was worse so came back to firefox and its been up and down all day today. I feel totally frustrated and have no idea why its acting like that. I find that after a few minutes if the color is almost across I go to something else in Mylot and find it did finally load. so very irritating, did not do this yesterday but today when I did not have so much time to get mylotting done, and i need the money to pay my internet bill each month. lol lol.

Hiya Hatley... so you are having problems loading the lot? I've no problems with that, but the same for Firefox and IE like you too. It's frustrating; I can relate to how you feel; and to see the wheel spinning like crazy but not coming out with anything; ugh..it's just time-wasting, lol. I'm going to check again later, and if things are still the same, I will have to do a system restore.

Whew, that pretty well intriguing and i think you already resolve it. Just imagine nothing left on the world wide web and yet they left you with one option that is to browse only my lot site for you to devour..lol.. That so funny and since the technological advances having internet as the ultimate obsession it feel like a disability if one have been addicted in internet feel something is lacking and that is communication and connection... it feel like something in you would not be complete if you have not touch it and that is having to miss out on some important events which add zest to one's life.. In my case I am using Mozilla ver. 3.5.6 and I do clean everyday using CCcleaner, Malwarebytes antimalware and run virus cleaner using either Esetnod32 and Avg..then, i also clean cookies, recent history and do disk clean up everyday. The only disgusting part I find is my ISP is so slow during midday and only have fast connection during night or wee hours of the morning...

Those are super good tips, Neelia. I'll take note of that in mind and will do it whenever I have PC trouble once more. You are right; sometimes the connection will make it hard to go from one function to the other..

No wonder I've not seen you around for the past few days. I was also limiting my participation... because of the slow loading and as well as for experimentation wise. I kinda miss mylot so much, so I'm not going to keep away from it anymore..

I think you need to check the cookies and then clean registry and other options are go to tools internet options delete history etc and it will start working. if it doesnt then u need to submit a report ( if u want to) IE and Mozilla. And they will get it done.

There must have been a problem with your Connection as that is what shows up when the Connection is interrupted, The Firefox Update will not affect it so it is not that I really hope that it is all sorted, try also cleaning your Cookies and see if that will make any difference

There is some malicious code going around. One thing has to do with Adobe and exploits vulnerabilities in Javacode. So much for playing computer games for a while! You might want to do a whole virus scan before going too much further.

myLot is a wonderful site but it would be better if we have the option of checking out our other personal stuff as well as the rest of the world. This is kinda like being stranded on a deserted island. The upside is that the island is your favorite island in the whole wide world. The downside is that you dont have anybody else to share it with. I havent had that kind of problem before. What I had was the opposite of that: everything loads except for myLot. All is good on my end at present though. Maybe its your computer, or something. Sorry Im not much help regarding this matter. Hope someone would be able to assist you with this. Goodluck.^_^

LOL.. I like the way you sum it up. That was exactly how I felt yesterday; like stranded in my favorite island, all alone and could not go anywhere at all. Like LOST in that island, ha... I appreciate your help all the same. It has been alright already now, since just now morning and I hope it stays that way. I think the update on Mozilla yesterday might have upset the channeling or something.. but I don't wish to know already, now that everything's fine; awesome. LOL..

For me I had this problem before I downloaded internet explorer 8. But I has some problems a few months ago with my computer rebooting so I had to go back to facotry settings. I lost everything and now for some reason I cannot download internet explorer 8. I do not know computers can be tricky sometimes that is for sure. Happy mylotting to you hope you figured all this out.

Internet Explorer 8?? I think I've used the version 7 before and I did encounter a few problems too. Maybe you can try to change to a Mozilla browser? It works for me.. quite alright, pretty fast. Or if you prefer to use IE still, try to remove the installation and then download again. Hope this helps yeah.. I apologize for my very late reply..

I was going bonkers yesterday not able to check out Mozilla and IE and basically checking out other sites... but now things are fine and dandy ahhhhhhhhh. So happy..

Try Chrome... It's pretty good and smooth. It's a bit slow at times, but still works really well for me. I used to get really irritated with explorer and Firefox, and now I haven't touched the latter ever since I started using Chrome.

Hello zed_k4 I am wondering if you use a router. If that is the case then try to reload the router. I have had those troubles to and learned from my internetsupplier that the router is the one causing the trouble. I thought I´d give you the advice and hope you get helped.

Reloading the router? That's a very good advice, thanks for telling me so much. I will try and follow that for sure. Thanks again..

Its recommended you clear your footprints, cookies, and internet cashe after firefox does an update. Sometimes its the computer having the problem. Check your internet settings and try restarting everything. It will clear your memory and help speed up your browsing experance. It should help with your page load errors. To reset your inttnert connection and clear it's memory, disconnect it from its power source for at least one minute and then plug it back in. The mobem or what ever will reset everything and clear any glitches its having. There are other trouble shooting tips you can try. You can use your computer's help file to tell you where to locate your isp adress. open command prompt (a dos window) and "ping" your isp. Simply type "ping (insirt isp complete w with '.' where needed and hit enter) the computer then will do a basic send/recieve protical. You should get at least four "replies" back at the end of the process if your isp is working properlly.
