Well, I tried Opera, since I'd heard good things about it. I'd been meaning to change browsers anyway and while it's a lot better than IE and I'll definitely be using it from now on, it hasn't solved the problem. I think it is purely a connection issue since things like AIM don't work properly and Ares has a hard time connecting. My friends aren't having this problem. I guess I'll do some more fiddling. Thanks for all the ideas, TDC. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Wow, I guess the problem was my firewall. Stupid Microshit stuff that installs itself automatically - I never even knew I had a firewall before now. [img]graemlins/crazyeyes.gif[/img] At least the problem's solved now. [img]smile.gif[/img]
