Can't use Speedtest.net?

Hi guys,

My Dad's recently been having a few issues on his phone line which have ultimately had a knock on effect on his broadband service. He has until very recently been able to run speed tests from: http://www.speedtest.net/

Now he can't... on any browser :rolleyes:

He can access the site but the speed test app just seems to stall? I can access/run the iphone app, no problem. Could it be a flash problem or something :confused:

Any ideas?

Tried this site

http://www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk/

Could be flash, not got another machine/laptop you can test with? iPhone/Android app

If it doesn't work in chrome.. Reset firewall to default.

Chrome has flash built in to it. So doesn't matter if you don't have flash installed

Nothing... it still stalls once I've clicked 'Begin' :rolleyes:

The iphone app works fine but I have not other machines to test at his place. Its got to be something he's done because ALL the browsers we've tried are behaving the same. Very strange!
