This is strange. Whenever i try to login to gmail by entering the address gmail.google.com , instead of opening gmail it shows me google search page with search topic as gmail.google.com.

The search displays only one result that too Welcome to Gmail.
When i click on this link i get the following error ---

Network Access Message: The page cannot be displayed

Technical Information (for Support personnel)
Error Code: 502 Proxy Error. The ISA Server denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). (12202)
IP Address: 192.168.9.34
Date: 8/10/2005 9:12:12 PM
Server: subserver.tekserver
Source: proxy

Any clue.
TIA

Well, I also faced a problem accessing my Gmail account a few days ago. I don't remember if the problem was similar. But it was solved by clearing my browser cache. Try clearing your cache and reply here ;)

well gmail.gogle.com must open gmail.com but i think there is some other problem in your machine. i think you are using a machine on proxy. in that case please use a better proxy like winproxy, as it filters everything perfectly.

as saROMan said, your proxy server is blocking that page so now the workaround would be try accessing

*mail.google.com

and if that also doesnt work then try secured page i.e. with https

*mail.google.com

Sometimes firewalls and proxy server block only http pages and does not block https ones so you can give it a try and see..

Huh? I've bin sending rar files for so long. If the recipient don't have rar, I just rename a zip file to mp3 and send it with a PS asking them to rename it to zip.

I second what siriusb said... even I have transferred rar attachments (mainly e-books) using my Gmail account. And I also do the trick of exchanging the file extension to mp3 and asking the receiver to rename it later.

It works fine, as far as I know.

You all are right.Actually i'm trying to acces gmail from my college's computer.This thing happens only in three computers out of 30 present.

These three have ghost keylogger installed on them ( Actually i myself installed it, it makes it easier to get your girlfriends password ).
I'll try uninstalling the software and will post the result.What i believe is that it is not due to the software,the reason might be something else.

Lets see.

And regarding the attachment chaos... You all can send attachments using gmail. siriusb's methodis ok,it works really fine. You can simply rename the extension from .exe to .exe_renamed as gmail drive does.

And that is with good reason too. It helps prevent computer illiterates from opening all the attachments that come via mail (remember, viruses still travel as exes). Since zipping too won't prevent them from opening the attachment as winxp and winzip are becoming popular, zip is also prevented. Only non-defaults like winrar/ace and the non-executable ones like mp3 are allowed.
