I got the same message this morning but the site is obviously now working OK for me. So my guess is Sharetrader and not your ISP or PC.

I got the same message at one point. Five minutes later it was fine.

Sharetrader isn't the most reliable site - often goes slow or u can't get in. Have to live with it..

I suspect some programmer made a change to software code recently and did not debug it. I could access any other site except. Had sent an email to sharetrader to assist them to identify problem.

I am still having intermittent problems with my PC such as my PC hangs. I now suspect no virus. Possibly a corrupt file in nortons. But what would explain my PC (after the hang) rebooting by itself? Me thinks on Monday will restore from backup to state prior to any problems.
