I had to ring them and it took about 3 days for them to accept it was their problem and sort it. _____________________ ~ Trout Rated 5.5 " You are not quite slutty - just beautiful, sensual, and fun to be around - and that's a pretty damn good thing in my book.

A traceroute on login.agni.lindenlab.com shows it resolving to many different IP addresses and login domains: loginxx.agni.lindenlab.com (where xx randomly changes) So... if you have anything messing about with your local DNS values (your HOSTS file, for example) you might need to stop it.
