PlanetZ forums - scopeusers.com

I would like to suggest to you friends, to use the new browser called Opera, it’s absolutely fantastic when you think about quickness. It’s much faster than internet explorer and netscape. Since I use it, my experience through the net is much better and so, can do more in less time.

That could help to see the Z in a easier way to. To go back or forward you have to press the Z and X keys respectively and this makes it very handy. Pages take less than a second to load, this is the faster I have ever experienced in the Z so far., thanks to Opera. Of course, the server is the cause of some problems eventually, but your browser could also be behaving incorrectly. Please, try Opera, you won’t regret!

I have used Opera for over a year. It is a gooood browser for most pages, but it is not a cure to the ocasional PlanetZ problems.

I tried to get in about 50 minutes ago - no luck.
I tried again about 20 minutes ago - still no luck.

Saw this at the ISP's help-desk:
"We would like to thank you for your added patience while we have been currently working on our network. Due to the equipment failure which recently occurred we have since taken extra precautions. One of the precautions made was to upgrade all software in our routers and switches. Currently all network operations are performing as expected. There is currently no further scheduled maintenance and are also expecting no further disruptions on the network. Thank you once again."

Dunno if that's the cause or what... frustrating. My experience has been pretty good for a couple weeks now, but they still may be throttling the site occasionally during extreme business. I'll try to keep an eye on it.
