What browser are you using? this also happens with my connection, perhaps if your speed is very slow then the browser will load it for so long, try ff or ie7

Yeah I know, its stupid really, sorry I dont know how you can fix it, perhaps try using a proxy or clear your cookies tempory data, reset ur modem, or wait for vm to fix it, try it tonight 00:00 there are no limits then so if problem still happens, ring them

Re: please help connection problem

It could be a codecs problem. Try installing a good codecs package, i found ace mega to sort out all probs on my sons pc.

Try installing quick time too.
