Grr. Anytime there's the slightest hiccup with DG, the PDB or the GWD, Mozilla will refuse to access the site and "time out" instead, for a looong time (hours, days...) Right now I'm accessing the site with I.E. (ucky but hey, at least it works!)

I've cleared EVERYTHING (cache, history, the whole shebang) with Mozilla and still it happens. I know I probably should upgrade to Firefox, but I haven't got around to it (or a round tu-it ;o) yet.

Sigh...

DG is running alive and well today...

I'm interested to know if firefox exhibits the same problem. Installing firefox is easy as pie. Just click here: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.8/FirefoxSetup-0.8.exe

I have Firefox...no trubbles here.

On occasion I've gotten the 'time out' error but not recently.

Alright, the rain kept me inside some today, and my frustration with Mozilla and disdain of I.E. drove me to download Firefox ;o) We'll see how it goes!

I've not noticed any probs with Firefox timing out on me and I've been using it for a few months now.

To enable quick launching of a URL in IE for those times Firefox does not appear to be compatible or is having problems, there's an extension you might want to try: IE View for Windows. It lets you right-click anywhere on the page and choose "view this page in IE". It automatically opens IE and brings up the same page you're on in Firefox. http://texturizer.net/firefox/extensions/#ieview
