This feels weird. I can login to the Pleiads and view the last events, view the hall of fame, even click on a recently colonised planet and get taken to its system. But, screens like "Planets", "Assignments", "Ships", "Training" just give me a "Waiting www.dqempires.com" for a while and then a blank screen.

Ive cleared my cache and tested other sites and everything else is fine - even the forums are working fine.

I will try from work though a different connection and a different browser and let you know how i get on...

Thanks,

Nobby

You are welcome

We have tested our game under IE (6.0+), Mozilla (1.7+) and Opera (7.3+). Also it work under Conquer web browser too - so it work not only under Windows. We did not tested it under MacOS - but since version 10, as I know, it is under FreeBSD kernel - so, Mozilla should work here too.

Ah. Its all very clear now. It appears you tested everything except the most important bit, and the bit most likely to break (things).

It seems the firewall tweaking *someone* did last night may have affected things more than was observed through beer goggles. Big apologies, all my own fault and stupidity.

Obviously it works - also with Mozilla 1.6, Opera 6.0, Netscape 6.1, and IE 5 in my experience - and they all stopped this morning, as did bbc's celebdaq!

So, once again sorry, and once again thanks for a great game, i'll shut up now

Tell *someone* to more carefly, when tweaking FW

P.S. I prefer *nix as firewall - You can setup it once and forget - until new hardware arrived to replace old one
P.P.S. In any case - do not forget about detailed info, when posting a bug report and thanx anyway.
