When I try to log in I get:
Unable to log into server.
Could not resolve domain name:
Please check your connection.
My connection is fine.

Any ideas? I did download the latest version.

Thank you.

by any chance is your ISP Earthlink? and you can try this anyways, Open up the command prompt for windows and type in

ipconfig /flushdns

this is just a shot in the dark. This will clear out windows cache for DNS. Earthlink got a back record one day and I could not access my web site thru that ISP. maybe related

My security did not pop up asking me to "allow" SL after the recent update. I had to manually "allow" SL in my security and all is well...
Thanks everyone for your responses.
