That's what happened to BBC Online in September.
BBCi News sluggish at the moment and I can't view the N24 RealMedia thing ... don't know why!!

I'm on a high speed college connection and I cannot access:

CNN
BBC
ITN
BBC World
and TV Forum seems a bit slow too!

I'm running on a quad-ADSL at college and I cannot load ITN or CNN - the others are loading but slowly - i dread to think what 56K users are getting.

Anyway getting back to the topic, it seems from reports that plane came down as a result of engine failure with no links to terrorist activity. Let's hope that's the case. 255 reported on board (246 passengers, 9 crew).

CNN Europe reporting there are two crash sites - one for the fuslage and one for the engine which apparently became detached from the craft shortly after takeoff. What's the time in NY? I think it's 10.23am?
