			At the command prompt type cd\ and hit enter to get to a C prompt.  Them run your tracert.

			What a nice way to wake up on a Monday morning... some  ill-disposed people has been DoS-attacking our main server for the past few days... and last night they multiplied their efforts. We did some precautions and also notified our datacenter. I hope your browsing experience has already improved.   |

			Was this a random attack, or does mobileread have enemies?

 It's under c:\windows\system32 on my machine - cd \windows\system32 tracert www.mobileread.com (As I'm paranoid, I post the response without including the first few hops which identify my local network route.) Last edited by Sparrow; 10-05-2009 at 03:23 AM. | |

 I am back to the "instant" loading. Thanks for the help. Does anyone else remember "dial up"?  How on earth did we ever deal with that?   Seemed perfectly normal to me.........until I changed to cable modem.... | |

 Its exactly where yours is. Will do more research to find the problem. I'm running vista but that shouldn't have anything to do with it. Thanks for the help | |

			MR is working fine today. I am sorry about the DoS attacks. Maybe it's from some disgruntled banned person starting it all. Dunno.
