I'm on BT wireless broadband, using Windows Vista, on my laptop, (Dell Inspiron 1501) and Internet Explorer 7, in Norwich.

	So far, 4 different servers were unable to get on this site - so they can't blame our servers. Do we all live in the same area? Are we all on broadband /wireless or a mixture? Is there any similarity between us at all? Have any of us upset GR - is it personal? LOL As for informing GR - they can read the board - and as we're not praising them, hopefuly they'll read it before deleting it!!! maggie

Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 23,508 Send Message	Bimey! I got in!!! Been locked out all morning. I'd like to think that GR closed it down for maintenance, or maybe to add new servers....yeah right. As usual I suppose there will be no apology or explanation from them... Oh well...got some tree stuff done instead lol

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 11 Send Message	Hi folks, I am also with virgin media and havent been able to get on the site since last night. Managed to get on eventually through friends reunited within the last 10 mins after a few tries.I tried various ways of getting back on with no joy. Have sent a message through friends reunited to ask what the problem was. Chris from Middlesbrough

Member Since: October 2004 Posts: 42 Send Message	I'm with Virgin media, got kicked off last night during the Rugby, in the middle of sending a message to a very promising contact. Tried via firefox and windows explorer, using favourites and also typing into google, but just kept getting message saying server not found. Been trying on and off all morning, just got back on. Wonder what was wrong?
