this is starting to annoy me now. but i just cannot get betfair to load on my new PC.
i have fiddled arround with IE setting's - cookies allowed, low security setting's etc.... but nothing. - all i get is (bottom left hand corner) opening page betfair,com - but nothing - you can leave it an hour and it wont load (i tried). every other website works and my connection is fine.

i have tried firefox aswell as explorer, and tried going to betfair - via links / search engine / typing into the address bar - nothing ;fire

anyone know what the problem could be?

You do have Java installed? If not go to 'Sun Microsystems Windows Xp Download' (Google)

Fiddle with the security settings, and try it with a firewall off.

i un-installed the virus checker / firewall (comming to the end of a trial period) and it is working now.

Make sure you do have a firewall though, even if it's a free one. Worth paying for though.

i will, - i currently have the window's one going at the moment - that work's ok with betfair. i will download the grisoft AVG antivirus/firewall in a minuit - that works well with my old pc.
