i trying to access paypal site and though i am able to reach it, it is stuck with half-loading (like looking up paypalobjects.com). its been down since few hours and i am not sure i am the only one facing this. i am accessing paypal from india.
The way I see it here, it seems to be in pristine condition (loads fine. I checked only on Fifefox). Looks like it is a problem on your end. Good luck with rectifying your problem.
It not the paypal site is not accesible but this is due to the undersea cable broke down. So that all the traffic will route through the same unbroken cable to a site so that the traffic is busy and it take a long time to reach paypal Here is the info about the cable down http://timesonline.typepad.com/technology/2008/12/is-the-internet.html??
Due to undersea cable breakage, not only paypal, you would be experiencing many sites not opening up... Regards, RightMan
yes i too have the same prob since morning if you try to open paypal.com from a proxy it works fine. - not recommended to login using Proxy sites
Sometimes PayPal goes down for maintenance. They generally alert their users once they are logged into the system. That may have been the case with you, but since you may not have logged in when the message was there you did not see it. The system is fine now anyway.
