Post by: holly222 on May 02, 2006, 08:38:57 AM
 :( :( :( :( :( :(
Having major comp issues..... Its doing it on all websites i try to go to....
This is the message i get every other time I click on a link or try to post or change boards...
I dont have a firewall, only the windows one and I checked it and its set right..

The connection has timed out                     

The server at www.pogo.com is taking too long to respond.

     

   *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
          moments.

    *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
          connection.

    *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
          that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Most of the time when I have that problem it is one of two things Pogo got a problem or your computer may need some maintence. Go to programs then accesories and the system tools. click disk clean up and let it run. then follow the steps again and use disk defrag  Hope this helps

If it's only pogo then You know how they are.

If your getting it on every site your ISP may be experiencing technical difficulties.

Try dleteing your cache and rebooting.

I think your ISP is having problems.

You should be able to call them and they will tell you if there is trouble in your area. ;)

I've heard people complain about that and it had to do with AIM or AOL in a tool bar thing that downloads and you can remove it by going to remove programs. I can't be positive about that. Its just something I have heard a few times.

Dust in the computer can cause all kinds of problems.  It over heats and weird stuff happens.  Have you opened your computer and took a can of air to it?  You would be suprised how much stuff can get in side of them.  I open mine every so often and blow it out.  If you need to do this, make sure you clean the fan really good with the canned air.

Sorry. Thats just what I have heard from other people.   Have you tried on IE to go to Tools.. then click on Pop Up Blocker  and turn off the pop up blocker?  Could that be it?

By any chance are you logged into an instant messenger? The ads in some IM's can cause your mouse to flicker also make sure your mouse connection isn't loose.
