Default Spore.com and Servers are Completely Down

For a while now, I'd get some weird internet/server error where I can not access spore.com or anything related, except for the US Spore Forum (Sporum). It would either just continue loading for a long time, not progressing, until 10 minutes later it finally says that the internet could not find the page. Or, it just wouldn't load at all.

However extreamly irritating this was, it was tolerable. But now, for a few hours now, the websites aren't working at all and I can't log into Spore. When trying to log on, it just continues for possibly unlimited time, trying to connect, instead of after a minute saying it could not connect.

I've reset the internet connection, but it's done no good. I don't mean to be rude but this is seriously ****ing me off.


Is anyone else getting this problem, or does anyone know how to fix it? It seems like Spore always fails me at the worst possible times! >_<

Good idea, but I can't change servers. Spore.com itself is down, it simply wont load. The little loading box at the bottom of the screen doesn't even show up! and with spore.com down, Spore and qualityspore.com wont work either.

And, we only have Internet Explorer on this computer...

It's not my computer to download things off of.

Well, over night the problem has resolved itself, but I really doubt it's the end of it. Someone from the US forums told me how to see what the problem is. So, if it happens again, I'll try that, if not, I'll get Firefox.

Thanks alot for the help
