problems opening mg's download pages

Hi

I've been having problems getting to the downloads section for about 6 weeks now.
If I keep trying I can normally get through after 5 or 6 or so attempts.

This does not happen anywhere else on major geeks or on any other site.

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same error ?

 

Broken IE addon most likely, friend. You can disable them manually in Internet Options to find the culprit.

 

All disabled, temporary internet files all deleted - still does it

Any other likely reasons ?

 

Avast and Spywareblaster

Had Ad-Aware 2007, but for some reason it wouldn't open (shows how often I use it anyway) Uninstalled it will reinstal later.
Don't believe its active when installed anyway, but could be wrong

Disabled Avast and Spywareblaster - made no difference
turned off pop-up blocker in IE7 - made no difference

 

Windows XP Pro firewall (default)
ie 7 pop-up blocker


Downloaded / installed
Opera 9.23
&
Firefox 2.0.0.6

Both work no problems

Will reboot in safe mode next time i remember

Thanks

 

I can't believe you are still having problems i get intermittent trouble but it usually gets itself sorted.

you have some of the best helping you so it should get resolved soon.

MGs slow-es right down here every day between 11.00 and 12.00 central European time but i think that is just maintenance it always comes back up.

 

My computer knows that it takes me a while to get around to fixing it, so it is kind enough to have prolonged problems

 

Just tried that thanks, didnt work either.

When i previously disabled the addons they all stayed disabled except for Adobe flash
So I uninstalled it.
Have since downloaded/reinstalled it.
