what i normally do when i have problem with connection is, either check my wireless or network cable, unplug and then plug it again. 

also you can try in another computer.

Edit: Ups....too late:P  you handled it now.

sorry to bump the thread but the problem has arisen again, and this time when i clear cache and cookies it still does not work, which is making me think that it was something else that worked last time that i cant remember.

Does anyone have any solutions to my problem?

EDIT: I just tried to log into my gmail with IE and it gave me a "This website is trying to download files onto your computer." When i clicked download i got 5 of the following screen...

when i canceled all the downloads it then came up with the page of "This page is taking too long to load, if you want you can use the Classic Version". Could the file trying to download onto my computer be the source of the problem?

EDIT: just found out that the html version works fine, its just the other version...
EDIT: just tried it with https instead of http and it worked, but this does not solve my problem as i dont want to change the address every time i log in...
EDIT: changed gmail to log in to https by default and now its working
