Is anyone able to load the Amazon site?  The site hasn't loaded for me for about a week.

Thanks.

I have had no trouble with Amazon.com
I'm using Netscape 4.75, try using a different browser.
I was just there looking at the reviews of Photoshop Album.

I've tried Safari, Explorer and Netscape and no luck on any of them.  I also emptied the cache and cleared the history.

I can load Amazon just fine under Classic, but not in OS X.  My mother's experiencing the same phenomenon.

Amazon loads fine for me. I tried with IE,  Safari, OmniWeb, Chimera, Netscape and Mozilla in OS 10.2.4 none had any problems.

Hi Dan,

This may be off the wall, but check the OS X side to see what DNS machine it may be referencing. If it's not referencing a valid DNS provider, it may not be able to find Amazon...although you should then be finding it hard to reach other places too. Since you can reach Amazon from Classic, it has to be some setting in OS X and DNS info seems most likely. You might need to check with your ISP and see what DNS server you should be trying to talk to.

Dan, tune in CBS on Thursday night. The Amazon will load then. A must for all (Tech)Survivors.
Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.
