It does seem to have been a bit of a PR disaster for them! MB |

Just sent my second email, saying very disppointed in their 'free 24 hours' and have lost 12 hours of it already....I did get an email, saying change cookies, turn of zone alarms, but I shouldn't have to do all of that, should I?...what a pain, it didn't look to bad either, I might have scripted, won't bother now......Lilly |

This is the reply I had, which means nothing to me If the login screen is being returned, try adjusting your cookie settings or turn off Zone Alarm as this can block access. I am not prepared to mess about with my settings - it is only this site that I am unable to access, and no-one else seems to be able to, either. Can anyone advise? Jay |

Morning Janet, seems to me they are sending out 'standard emails', and like you I am not going to start changing my settings, they should set up a web site that people can access, without all this mucking a round.......as you quite righty say, we don't have to do it on other web sites.....Lilly |

I managed to get it working at about 12. Had about 30mins of access then went to lunch. Have now returned to find that the server is down. I assume that means that America has woken up and a few million Americans are trying to access the site. Hope it gets up and running again soon. Matt |
