    We have Comcast cable and last night I checked E-mail. Just fine. Turned off lappy and turned it on this morning (usual routine) and now I can't get into my comcast E-mail. It won't me login or go there. It keeps reading "http:/chrome-p-a. comcast.net/2039riewaovmesaioeue0 (for example) keeps flashing at the top of the screen. And the screen where all of the comcast headlines usually are is completely blank.

    Thanks for any help!

    Never mind--I guess it is a comcast issue. Sorry to jump the gun so quickly! :)

    The same was happening with me earlier at work. It seems to have been fixed though.

    If you can get hotmail/gmail any internet base e-mail then it is the ISP e-mail server, may be they are upgrading their systems or just they have techincal issues with the server.

    Hackers are like the doctor's vaccine, they interact with the NIS (Network Immunity System), so networks security resist the real biger attack, they should actually be paid for their work as we pay doctors :D :D :D

    Well they should have done something useful like give all us Comcast customers charge-backs or a month of service! Maybe free movie channels haha.

    Instead they just messed with my email... punks... :cool: :mad:
