I don't have any Firewalls running. I have McAfee but it is not installed for the firewall. The Windows Firewall is completely disabled when I try to log into SL.. I am on a desktop computer wired right to the modem.. any other ideas?

Im at a loff please help. I had no problems getting in the other night.. last two days have been like this tho =(

Im going to uninstall and reinstall just in case I might have messed up a file but I dunno how I would have done that lol

I'm having login problems too. I get to the precaching part and it crashes and it takes between 15 or 20 attempts before I can connect. There seems to be no apparent reason why I am able to connect eventually, nothing has changed from my previous attempts.

This problem started immediately after last week's update (14th) I had never had any problem connecting previously. I was hoping that this week's update would cure it but unfortunately not.

I've checked my firewall, virus checker, I've rebooted and reinstalled the program but nothing has worked and I send in a crash report every time. I also have SL installed on a laptop and I connect perfectly every time on that.

I would be very grateful any clues as to what the problem might be.
