I was duly booted and after 10 mins was able to get back into the sim, however since then my friends list is no longer updating at all, ie even when friends are online it is not showing them as they log in and out, they are obviously not recieving my IM's and I cannot teleport out of my sim to go to my other pieces of land. I am immediately disconnected and logged out of secondlife. Everything is quite normal in my home sim when I log in so it's got to be a blip at sl's side of things as I've never had this kind of problem with this version up until this event. Up until 5.55 PDT I was able to teleport where I wanted and no settings on my pc have been changed at all.
Just a heads up something is drastically wrong here and I'm feeling very isolated. I have noticed a one or two newbies that appear in my plot so I'm hoping data hasn't been deleted when the sim went down

my PC is a gateway 710GB with intel pentium D dual core processor 820.
each dual core processor is running at 2.8GHZ, 800MHZ FSB , 2 x 1MB L2 cache
320 GB SATA HD ( 7200 RPM with 8MB cache
Intel 945 G Chipset
1024 MB DDR2 - dual channel memory
Intel Graphics Accelerator 950
running Windows XP home edition SP2
Hope that geeky stuff will help
thanks in advance
