problem logging into some sites

    hey!

    Lately my pc wont connect to my bebo site or my gmail or hotmail accounts....the sign in page appears but once i enter my password and user name and enter it, it says the connection has failed! it doesnt even reach the sign in page on my gmail account

    I dont understand what it could really be because my msn works fine with tthe same password, it fails to connect on both firefox and internet explorer. Its not the firewall on my computer or the proxy settings. Other websites such as myspace, boards etc all work fine....just bebo, hotmail and gmail

    I would really appreciate it if someone could give me any ideas on whats wrong and how i could fix it!

    Thanks alot!

    All the sites you mentioned use a high amount of cache.

    Try clearing the cache in both browsers

    Firefox:
    Tools -> Clear Private Data. Make sure Cache is ticked.

    IE7:
    Tools -> Internet Options -> Delete Browsing History.
