as we are still having problems with google itself plus any site that uses a google analytics/adclick path, I called my ISP, Roadrunner, this morning and sure enough...they say there are major problems for central Florida accessing certain sections of the net, specifically anything google related.

they had me run all kinds of tests and paste the results into an email for them as they are trying to further troubleshoot the issue

At least I can now sporadically get into my gmail. glad I dont use it for business tho!!
amazing how Google dependent I am especially related to researching stuff that I list in my stores, never mind the analytics and datafeeds for my products to show on Google shopping etc.

I have been using the Bing.com search engine in the meantime and must say I really like it

anyway. at least I now know this wasnt just us, but is an area wide problem.
I do hope they get it fixed asap as it is amazing how many websites use Google pathways to connect.
