Maybe a temporary problem with your ISP. Try pinging to the GMail servers.
Also you can try Proxify at http://proxify.com to access GMail. Just remember to use http://gmail.google.com/gmail/ as the URL to GMail (to avoid redirection). If you can see the homepage of GMail, it is available and working. Unfortunately you will not be able to log in, because of the protections made by Proxify. |

It still wont work. I tried that link and it says "redirecting to /gmail". then it tries to load gmail.google.com/gmail and it still times out and doesnt work. It was working fine days ago, and now it just stopped working. Any more ideas?

Try this alternate address
http://gmail.google.com/gmail?nocheckbrowser Did you add any software in your computer? Zone Alarm? Norton Internet Security? |

Spin,
I am out of ideas. The googlemosters did it. Hope you can access the site soon. I use both on Firefox and Internet Explorer with no problem right now. |
