I am a Netzero dial-up user.

I was browsing craigslist.com using Firefox, with several other tabs open at the same time, when the craigslist tab disconnected. No other tabs were effected. I tried to bring up craigslist after rebooting and I get:

" The connection has timed out

The server at orangecounty.craigslist.org is taking too long to respond.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox  is permitted to access the Web.

"

I asked a friend to try craigslist and he had no problem.

I tried closing Firefox and used Google Chrome.

I tried deleting the tab where craigslist had been resident, and opening on a different tab.

I tried deleting cookies for www.craigslist.com - the last trick in my very limited trouble-shooting arsenal

Same results with all. Why can't I access Craigslist, please?

Thank-you,

Jon Bryant
