Sure thing, I am somewhat over-sympathetic perhaps, lol.

That message sounds familar and unique to Firefox. Try almost any other browser and if you have the same problem, well truthfully I can't see why you could access Google and not Neopets. Sounds like nasty, neo-specific spyware and there seems more of it going around lately.

I am PMing you a link to some tiny, and easy hints and utils. If you need any stronger arsenals, let me know.

Well if neo is down and you don't have anything to do, you could always eat fungi.

Well, I am all out of ideas. :cry:

I have run every program I can find. I have no virus's, trojans or hijackers. I did have a few spyware cookies that were very low threat and are now deleted.


Why can't I access Neo??? :cry: :cry: :cry:

Don't despair! I can't access neopets either.
Opera and IE both produce the same result of "cannot find server"
So you're not alone!

Aussieland as well!
Maybe the cyodrake's gaze ran over the line that pipes neopets to those of us downunder!

It's working perfectly fine for me. Maybe I'm just a lucky Australian?

Congrats anyway of being able to get on Neo. :)


For further research, I live in QLD.

Ah, Victoria for me. Queensland's fault, perhaps?

:roflol:

I was only just thinking that it might be a local problem.

We will see. :)


UPDATE:
My toolbar is still working as it was just flashing. Tarla had left the building.

Thanks Alex. :)


I just don't understand it. I cannot access jellyneo or spankaroonietwo but I can access Neoitems and all of PPT.

It seems that I am getting blocked out of Neo-related sites!!

I'm a fellow NSW Aussie as well, experiencing the same problem as you. Can't access Neopets directly.

Funny how I used Google Translator to "translate" Neopets and it worked fine.

Thanks for the insight. :)


This mystery deepens. I will try and use Google Translator and see what happens.

EDIT: Really don't know what I am doing.

Ahron, can you let me know exactly what you did please. :hug:
