Quite often when I try to access the site my browser (Firefox) just stops at the 'waiting for Planetcricket.net' stage. I have to disconnect from the internet, re-connect and try again, when often it'll log-on straight away. Similar if I use IE.
I know this isn't the end of the world, but it is a bit of a pain. It's the only website/forums that I use which does this. Anyone got any ideas why this would happen (I don't think my IP uses a fixed ip address and if this has anything to do with it?).
Cheers in advance.

I get that sometimes and a refresh usually sorts it

Cheers Kev but still no joy. Last night I couldn't log on at all for about an hour (between 10-11pm). Just me or was the site down?

When you say you couldnt login do you mean the site was up but it didnt let you login or you couldnt access the site at all?

Yes- actually he is now head honcho of EA Sports Division, though he has conflicting interest as he has just snapped up Codemasters too.

He said I would be the first to receive any patches for future cricket releases; just as long as I didn't disclose them to anybody else ;)
