Is there a problem with gmail right now? Everytime I go past the log in screen it hangs at loading and just keeps poping other info in the address bar for about 5-10 mins then I have to shut it down without it even lwtting me get to my mail.

I just tried it and it worked for me.

not sure why I can't get into mine. It just hangs at the loading screen for 10-15 mins now and just keeps adding numbers and letters to the address bar. Should I delete my cookees and temp files and try again?

It seems to be fine for me also. What Browser/ OS. etc are you using Storvick?

IE 6. This just started doing this about 2 days ago. When I let the site run for a while it tells me there is unusual Usage on the account which is wierd.

Try using another browser yet? (i.e. Is it the browser or the account?)

I don't use Gmail myself, the invitations only system creeps me out.

Try using ePrompter to access your Gmail account.

It's an email utility that can monitor/access multiple email accounts while helping you duck viruses. ePrompter can access Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, regular POP3/SMTP, and all the other types of accounts. I've been using it for years.

It is a free download without popups or other crud advertising (!) you can get it from http://www.eprompter.com

It sounds like either a security setting (try resetting them to defaults) or a third-party pop-up blocker-thing.
