Been using my works pc as a mirror for my home pc for 2 years now (i.e they are both identical spec with same sites visited - mostly banking and forums).

Two days ago, however, I stopped being able to log onto egg. Firstly, thought it was their website was having probs so tried again today. Still couldn't get access so phoned home and asked my wife to try from there - she logged in no problem.

Nothing has been changed - no additions or deletions etc so why would it stop allowing me to log in from this compuiter - just says "internet explorer cannot display this webpage".

The three computers at work and my home rigs are set to automatic update for windows. The rigs at work are all running Virgin broadband through a Linksys router and NONE of the three at work can log into egg.

Can anyone help shed light on this?
 
Even more interesting now. I have plugged in my laptop which CAN access egg when at home, however, it is unable to access it from my office either.

BTW, I am the one in charge of the computers/router in the office and no-one else has been near them.
 
your in fife, and I assume your on cable. its happening to me aswell and a few others not just for egg.

bank of scotland, can log in but cant check any acount page times out.

Had same issue with play.com etc tried 4 pcs all cable connections and nothing. Tried a dial up and a bt and bang its in. changed dns and play now works as does most others. but still no banking and yahoo does the same.

Time for us to be phonin virgin me thinks.

Yes I am on cable - been frustratingly slow the last couple of days too

Never had any problems before virgin took over - this was the sweetest net connexion
 
still nothing here, can you get to play.com and digitalspy forums without using any dns or proxys?

my neighbour can get into his bank of scotland fine and hes using my connection but mine and my other pc and laptop all wont work.

Reset everything but nothing
 
yeh play half loads pages, what about digital spy.

if u cant try opendns.com that will get most pages working and may fix your egg. let me know.
