I wonder if anyone is able to help here.
For some reason I cant access the MySpace website from my laptop. Im not having any other kind of apparent computer trouble, and can access other sites exactly the same as I always can. Also I dont think it's a myspace problem as I can access it fine on other computers and also anyone else i've asked can get on it fine.
When I type in the URL, the loading progress bar at the bottom of the page gets to full, and the title bar at the top of the window changes to myspace, but the actual page remains frozen on the previous webpage. The pointer has the egg timer at the side and it just stays like that, with anything on the screen becoming unclickable so I cant close the page or minimise it or anything. All that is left for me to do is Ctrl Alt Del, and close it that way...where it changes to "not responding", and asks me if I want to report the problem.
I've done the following to no avail...
Disk cleanup
De-frag
Deleted cookies and temp files
Ran a virus check - AVG V.8
Ran a spyware check - AdAware
Done a system restore back to Monday when I know it was working fine
Still, no joy.
I really really REALLY need my myspace...as my whole work is basically run through that, so if I can't access it im seriously shafted.
Any help or suggestions as to what the problem may be, or what I could try, would be massively appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Oh, PS - it's not a login problem, as I cant get onto the site at all...let alone attempt to log in.

Tried a different browser?
Nope, hadn't thought of that...will try it now. Cheers for the suggestion!
Just stay away from Myspace its crap 
It's great for business, It's only crap if you're a wee guy trying to chat up imaginery birds
Anyway, it works no bother using Firefox...if anyone knows what the problem might be when using IE (apart from just saying IE is crap...), and how to fix it, that would be a great help

What makes it all the more funny is that gav-ffc doesn't see he is getting slagged with that comment
