Format C: :P
If you have time, you may consider doing that. It may even solve some other problems (if you had them). :ping:

REFORMATTING THE HD!?!

I hope you are kidding.

Holy smokes.

Kidding? Well, actually I was kidding :lol: , but you better find how to solve the problem before not being able to enter here to make more questions. :P :P :P

Cheers :rock:

Format C: is a "all fix medicine" :rotfl:
But it takes a week-end to restore everything :rotfl:

Actually I probably have to do it myself, but for another reason :damn:

Roger that... lol it is why I am so frantic at the moment... and typically I don't get frantic.

Sheesh, I'm glad you were kidding. :)

Okay, this is wierd...

Now I can access Terrapin's site... but still not Rapidshare.

I need a freaking nap now. :doh:

I don't know if this is relevant...

For some of the users with graphics added to their signatures... now I get little red "X's" instead...

Any idea why?

As I wrote, try it with a different browser and use no proxy.

Many of those signatures are hosted on Imageshack.us, a site that your system seemingly also cannot access.

Yep... but I don't know if I would still be kidding if I had a system diagnosis in situ. :P

Anyway, format is just the last thing, when everything else failed to work. :D

:oops: Regarding using different browsers... I am ashamed to say I don't know how to do that. I have heard of Foxfire and Opera... but that is all. :oops:

Sorry to trouble you so Gizzmoe.

just a few pages you might like to brouse :cool:

Firefox:
http://download.mozilla.org/?product...win&lang=en-US

Just install it and it should work. Usually you don´t need to configure anything. If your provider requires a proxy configure it under Extra/Options/General/Connection Settings.

Thanks again Gizzmoe and Slow_n_ez. :yep:

I will try out your suggestion when I return from my 24 hour shift at work.

Okay, total wierdness...

Everything is working again (Rapidshare, Imageshack) and all I did was be a little persistent...

... I think this was a service provider problem... not something going strange with my settings etc.. :nope:

Sorry to have posted so much here regarding it all.

Thanks for all the help once again Gizzmoe and company! :up:

S!
