Clothing won't load

For the past week I have been able to log in to SL with no problems. How ever once logged on the system begins to "download clothing" and eventually give me a message saying that this is taking awhile and not everything is downloaded yet. When I "materialized" my AV is that of a hairy chest shot woman with long hair and a goatee. It's like parts of me are there and the rest the system is making up. SOmtimes I am just floating in space other times I arrive at destination or never arrive and the system says I have been logged out of SL. If I do arrive my inventory never loads fully. But even those things that are listed I can do nothing with. I also can not move. I can not walk or make any movement at all. Sometimes I can chat and IM but that doesn;t work very well either. This has been on going since Monday. Does anyone have any idea as to what maybe causing this problem. Needless to say it is frustrating as all get out considering on Sunday everything was fine!

Thanks in advance

I've had the same problem. Are you on a cable modem? I'm on Comcast here and I think the problem might be to do with how data is handled by the modem and by Second Life.

I posted in one of the other big thread some idea of what might be going on from a WoW forum. Have a read.
