OK, maybe it was just my computer. Works fine if I go to the site via the link on this page...but not via my bookmark. Odd.....?

They have been really slow the past 2-3 days for me, no matter how I enter. Different look on the menu page might have something to do with it.

I got inconsistent results. I'd get page load errors, keep trying the same link over and over, and all of a sudden it would work. I thought it might have been the firewall I just installed. Do you have a firewall running Hitman?

(edit) Congrats on reaching 1000 posts. I bet you'd hoped to say something more profound on #1000 huh? LOL

No, GM, no firewall. But I was getting the same page errors. Sometimes I couldn't log in. Other times I was in, but couldn't navigate after selecting a team. Then all of a sudden all was fine. Then the same thing the next day. I dunno...........but sure that tyhey do.
Actually, I thought my 1000th post was Hank Goldberg's Picks........... and I made reference to such in that thread. l guess I miscalculated. No wonder I am having a lousy Jan. so far, I can't count !!
One thing about Carib.........when my pop-up controls are on, I can't bet. Nothing happens when I punch in a team. This is the only site I have where a malfunction occurs w/ pop-ups.

Ok, that last sentence you wrote may be a clue. My firewall software comes with a pop-up blocker as well. So that may be the problem here. I can override the pop-up blocker by holding down CTRL when I click...which I had to do at Carib.

Also....the scores ticker on their page drives my computer nuts. When I mouse over the programs on my toolbar everything flickers and flashes. Brand new computer with little software on it and a ton of memory, so I don't think the problem is on this end.

Whatever it is, they've definitely got some issues. Shame, because next to WSEX I always thought they had the simplest, cleanest, fastest software going. If I want scores I can find them on my own on the internet. Would rather sportsbooks keep their pages as simple as possible....just text, no graphics, no scrolling banners, etc.

Whatever they did, it doesn't seem like it's for the better......for now anyway. They were always the quickest sign on I have. I use their password memory which I love. It comes in handy when I am running late with a last minute bet, I know it is only seconds between sign in and bet acceptance.
I also now have to scroll down to get the full menu and I didn't have to do that before. Not a big deal, but..........

*Pinnacle took down their live scores a while ago...........those screwed with my puter.
