Hi, I have a strange problem (I think) that I've never experienced before.
A week or so ago, a few of the websites that I visit frequently stopped working. Facebook, Gmail, Hotmail etc. For example, I can go to Facebook's front page, but when I try to log in an error appears. Gmail and Hotmail I can't even get that far. The site just keeps loading and eventually I get the "The site took to long to respond, the session has timed out" error. But most other sites work fine, Talking Balls being of one of them as you can see.
I use Mozilla Firefox, which I have reinstalled, but the same websites won't work in Internet Explorer either! I haven't changed any settings as far as I'm aware.
These sites do however work on my iPad, which is on the same network.
Being someone who has worked for IBM IT support, this is slightly embarrassing (working there was slightly embarrassing in itself but nevermind that) so I hope you can help me out here...
