Wendy, Perhaps the problem is not Melco? Perhaps it is something on your end, or perhaps in the routing from your location to the Melco servers? I very rarely have a problem getting into the site, and I do it a lot. I access it for part numbers and prices at least 3 to 4 times a week, and sometimes this is from home after hours. I also access Email every night and every morning before I go to work and the hardly ever have an issue. From work we access it exactly the same as anyone else, VIA the Internet. I find it hard to believe that if it has happened every time you try and access the site for a 2 month period that it was down every one of those times. I suspect there may be other reasons. Have you tried clearing deleting your cookies and deleting your Internet cache files? While in Internet Explorer, go to TOOLS, then INTERNET OPTIONS. On the General TAB click on Delete Cookies and Delete Files. This will insure that there are not any older files and or cache stuff hanging around that could interfere. Can you get to www.melcomart.com right now?

I tried to make Melco aware of this when I've called to place my order over the phone but I got some pretty apathetic responses and I wonder if the information I gave them went anywhere. Because of the 2 hour time difference here it can be somewhat of an inconvenience to phone in an order so the on-line ordering is really important to me. As a Melco employee maybe you could let the IT dept. at Melco know this is a recurring problems with on-line customers.
