Now, I usually use this website, and has been working fine on my connection up until about 2 weeks ago, when it often freezes on loading.


Can anyone load this website (preferably from a Telecom connection)


http://www.grooveshark.com/


I want to know whether its just me who can't load it, or something to do with Telecom.

(So please only people from NZ answer this, as I know it's working outside NZ anyway)


Thanks!

Works fine here, on Slingshot.

If it freezes upon loading, it's quite likely to be a problem on your end (possibly your web browser) rather than your ISP.

Just tried resetting the modem, using a different modem and reinstalling flash on all computers with no luck.

Sometimes it works, but more often not.


I tried loading it over a 3g vodafone connection, and it worked the first time without any issues.. so, I'm not sure what else to check..

I'm on Big Time fyi.

Works for me on Telecom BigTime, though I have to use Chrome as it never loads in FF.

What antivirus have you got?
Can you disable it temporarily?

I had no end of problems accessing my internet banking a few years ago on a new PC. The Nortons 3 month demo finally came to an end and I uninstalled it and installed a freebie:
1) PC went much faster
2) Internet banking worked like a charm.

Hi there,

I have no anti-virus on my desktop, none on my Mac, and AntiVir on the other laptop.


So definitely not an anti-virus issue.

Thanks
