URL TOO LONG

[Little Jimmy]

STRANGE..WHEN I TRY TO SIGN INTO MY GMAIL ACCOUNT, I GET A 'URL TOO LONG'
MESSAGE...AFTER I TYPE IN GMAIL.COM, THERE'S ABOUT A THOUSAND OTHER
LETTERS/SYMBOLS THAT JUMP IN AUTOMATICALLY AND WON'T GO TO GMAIL.COM....IT
ALSO SAYS IT'S 'REDIRECTING'....ANYBODY ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM?

No, but your caps lock seems to be stuck

What is with the all uppercase lettering?

Try this...

In Internet Explorer - in the address bar - erase anything already there and
type in:

http://www.gmail.com/

Press [ENTER].

Did that work?

If so - then you were just typing and allowing the system to remember
something you typed before (selecting it inadvertently from a drop-down).
If not - you may have a HOSTS file redirecting you elsewhere - possibly from
a malware infestation.

Change the date on your computer to the correct date and time. that should
fix it. sounds dumb, I know. But trust me, it works. even if its not wrong,
change it by a miniute or so and click "ok"
