Keep trying, do not close the app - let the connection attempt time out instead, you will eventually connect.
Load Problems with SL
Hi,
We are still having problems with heavy login load on Second Life, as of 2:30PM PST on 12/31. The grid is currently open, but logins are very slow. We are working on some quick fixes that we are testing right now, and additionally are getting new hardware ready to replace the equipment that is still running slow. I don't have an ETA for repairs. We may get some speedups in the next couple hours, otherwise there will likely be grid downtime tommorow (1/1) as we change hardware.
We're here at the office - doing all we can. Apologies for the problems.
