I have FF set to clear private data every time I shut it down, that includes clearing out my cache.

...I hate AOL so much...

There's got to be a problem with AOL, because it seems that we AOL users are the ones being affected. The ads on this page time out, certain pages refuse to load, and it seems that those of us who can use the AOL browser can access the sites normally through there.

Weird.

We aren't on AOL for much longer (I hope), as they have always been... mediocre at best, and glitchy, laggy, and irritating at worst. Here's hoping we can find a solution. Maybe a global virus will erase all traces of AOL from the surface of the earth.

...here's hoping.

Yeah, mines working fine now.

I'm still gonna ditch AOL though. If it does this at all, it's pointless.

Blame Pakistan.

They set up a system to block their citizens from seeing YouTube and several other sites that broadcast stuff that violates Islamic regulations.

Their system represented itself as the prime server to access these sites, and then it threw the requests away. But it affected the entire Internet, not just users in Pakistan.

This info was in today's newspaper.
