im trying to log on but it keeps saying server is not available but it says there is 132 people online does anyone know how to fix the problem?

Maybe you are behind a fierwall, do you use a router or apersonal firewall?
Which system are you using? Linux, MacOS, Windows?

[Laith]

im not behind a fire wall or router and im running windows

[Alfonso Knaf]

Can you open the command line (darn I am not sure if it is called that way in englisch... maybe it is command shell) please.
(Go to: Start->Programms->Accesorries->cammand line)
Then type
ping http://laanx.fragnetics.com/
And give us the output.

it says:
Ping request cannot find host http://laanx.fragnetics.com please check the name and try again.

Hmm okay a assume you definitely have a connection problem.
From where are you accessing the net?
School, university, work?
EDIT: ARG, wait a minute!
