Invalid Server error on home PC

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

When i try to connect at home I get a 'cannot connect to server' error message, just a plain white screen with a couple of lines of text. Occasionally last night it was directly linking to some strange search engine.

it seems fine at work tho. Is there some kind of setting I need to render on my browser do you know ? I'll check at lunchtime when I go and read the exact message, Ill let yer know.

I'm wondering if its some horrible spyware problem, but my Norton has found anything.

it does sound like spyware, and I don't think norton catches spyware, only viruses? maybe they have changed it though. Try spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Ironically enough, my home PC can connect to ILX for the first time today. (My Mac laptop could always connect to it.)

Now what's up with my getting a "name lookup failed" when I try to change my settings?

downloaded Spybot and ran it, it found fooking loads of rubbish. And guess what? It's worked!

Cheers teeny !!
