Can't login to PayPal after XP reinstall?

    I'm just back online after a fresh XP install - and can't log in to PayPal. Not with Firefox (3), or IE. This is with the XP firewall and Sygate disabled.

    Any ideas?

    What exactly you mean with "can't login", does it go back to the homepage or a blank page or stucks with the loading page etc?

    It just sticks on the login page. It doesn't matter what login/password I enter - I don't even make it to a "wrong password" page.

    ???

    I have JAVA installed, but not enabled.

    EDIT:

    I've just talked to a friend (in Australia), and he's having the same problem. Looks like PayPal have pulled the plug on us down here :p

    Do you mean it only happen in Australia? How could it be?
    Have you ask other friends from Australia? I mean, more than one person?

    PayPal site often hangs nowadays so you just need to wait for sometime and hopefully it will be fine. I have faced the same problem many times in the past few days! :(

    It's all good now, PayPal is working.

    It was out for about 20 minutes.

    Didn't think your computer software would make a difference to any website such as paypal.

    Happened to me for about 8 hours two days ago, I am in Australia as well ;) - I think it is just some minor bug or something.
