Sometimes, I click on the link from email notification, and the page just freezes. It usually gets better when I try later. I though perhaps it was just too busy, but there dont seem to be loads of new posts when I get back on ???

No probs here other than having to hit the refresh button from time to time as the whole page doesn't load up first time.

Similar problems plus very slow loading, sometimes can't get on, it says due to heavy load....but at 3am when I can't sleep sound a bit odd!!

Thanks for your replies.

Sorry to hear that you're all experiencing problems entering certain forums, but at least I know that I'm not alone  :-\

It seems to be just the Swap Shop that I can't get into, and it isn't only at certain times either, I haven't been able to get in since early last week.

Oh well, I'll keep trying  ;)

Grrrrrrr. I'm trying now to post a reply on the Bargains Galore forum on the Wyevale thread and it won't let me.

It's driving me mad  :-X :-X :-X

It looks like it is something to do with AOL

If I look into it from this end, could you please report your problem to AOL, and ask them to investigate.

Cheers

I'm on AOL, Dan, and I'd be happy to report it.  Sorry to sound dim but what should I tell them?

Explain the problem, tell them that you are having trouble accesing this website, let them know that others on AOL are also having issues.

As far as I am aware it is only AOL users (if not let me know).

I just tried to access the Swap Shop just the normal way, and as per usual it wouldn't let me. Then I had a brain wave (might have to lie down now  ;D).
I tried the same Swap Shop going via *Internet Explorer* and it worked \o/...Yippee.

Lauren ;D

P.S...Yep you guessed it...I'm with AOHELL   :'(

Thanks Lauren. I've also managed to get in through Internet Explorer, and yes, I'm with AOL too.

What browser are you using when it does not work?

If I log into AOL I can't get into Swap Shop and a few particular threads, but if I log straight into Internet Explorer I don't have any problems at all.

If you report any fault to AOL, they have a standard reply for EVERYTHING.
"You need to re-install the AOL software"

Yeah, like hell I do  :o

OK, here's one for you Dan.

I've sorted out the problems with entering certain forums, i.e. if I can't enter through AOL I go onto Internet Explorer and that lets me in.

BUT............I can't get into the chat room through AOL OR Internet Explorer. WHY???
