Site problems?

I'm not sure where this goes, but is there any reason why I can't load this page at work? It used to work just fine, and the site isn't blocked at my firm, it just won't load? The top will have that tagline of "Wall Street Oasis...where monkeys come to play" but the actual content will never load.

Any suggestions?

Try using Firefox instead of

Try using Firefox instead of IEE: http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

you should be able to install this without admin privileges, hopefully

otherwise just try refreshing loads, works for me sometimes

ironically i had trouble

ironically i had trouble loading this post and had to refresh. im not even at a company right now and have a perfect internet connection, so I am guessing it is the site. Good point on firefox joefish, I am using IEE too, but I would rather not switch over just to make one site work better.

I can't stand Internet

I can't stand Internet Explorer, so a long time ago I installed Firefox at work. I don't know what I'd do if IT were to somehow ban Firefox.

Anyone here banned/prevented from using Firefox at work?

Firefox wasn't installed

Firefox wasn't installed last summer when I interned...but I just asked I.T. and they were pretty cool about it, installed it to my profile

IE does my head in, Firefox is so much better

This actually sounds like the opposite of irony.

In any case, I'd recommend firefox as well. I'd never used the program before WSO recommended it (and currently I only use it for WSO), but it seems to load the site's pages more smoothly than does internet explorer.
