looked into that i have bt broadband also 2 dongles one form 3 one form vodafone...same problem

i need help

Try pming spinner.

He always has solutions for this kind of problem.

All i can suggest is you talk with your broadband provider, or your internet box may be faulty, so try another internet.

Other than that i dont have a clue.

how about a possibility of a virus.

i saw that comin lol

different internet today, exactly same problem

and ty ill keep eye out for spinner

Have you checked your installation of java is ok?

Thats always first culprit if there are any problems with the game applet :

i had to do it yesterday i think there may be a fault witht the new java update as instantly i had to clean out system to get it to work doesnt seem so bad now though
every couple of days it does it again i might have same problem

Just read through the whole thread and it really does seem like an issue with your internet connection rather than java alone (though many people do need to reinstall after an update).

Have you tried a deep flush of your temporary intenet files and programs?

This is a rare instance where I suggest downloading a utility to help :

http://www.ccleaner.com

just to make people aware this flusher did work and has helped, i suggest this in future

try spelling the alphabet out with your tongue, that will get the funkysnooker to load

what kind of a pointless post is that?

glad its sorted rusty
