Keep getting this when i try to log in. I know the account info is correct because i just logged into the forums using it.

Any ideas?

This indicates that your computer has prematurely disconnected from our servers. This is typically due to not having Windows updates, a misconfigured firewall, or other software interfering (be it virii or spyware / malware / other garbageware). Make sure to have all of the latest Windows updates, and try shutting down all other software to see if something is interfering. You should also run virus (free and good: http://free.grisoft.com ) and spyware scans (free and good: http://www.microsoft.com/athome/securit ... fault.mspx )

This started about 1.5 hours ago.

At the time only things running were EQ (via winEQ), Firefox, and Trillian.

Since the original posting, Ive been able to log in occasionally, but it always boots me off within a few moments, and EQplaynice cant seem to run.

Will give the scans a go.

It can also be due to network congestion, or an internet router between your system and our server malfunctioning, and so on. If it just started 1.5 hours ago, it may just be a temporary issue with your ISP and may be resolved within hours with no further action.

Unplugged my computer from the wall and plugged it back in. Failed x1 then now seems to be working.
