Sometimes the page doesn't refresh good ( I have to refresh it manualy )...for example, if someone tells me something about a new suspect, it doesn't appear on the suspect list, I have to refresh. I dunno if you understand...and after several stuff like it this message appears:

The proxy server is refusing connections













Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.








* Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.

* Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
working.



And because of this **** it quited 2 cases without me doing anything....I tink it's my problem, but could anyone help ?

Well...I log in from my own home computer wich is part of our home network ( me, mom, dad, my sis ) How often...often !! And yes, sometimes it does get me back to the log screen. I tink he wants to say " Try loging back in stupid !! "

So, how can I solve it ? If I play from my sister computer, it works !!

I had a very similar problem, I had google web accelerator for Firefox. Once I disabled that, I have not had any more trouble. Hopefully your problem is as simple.

Yes any web accelerator program will muck up your connections.

If both your's and your sister's computers are on the same network then it has to be something in particular to your computer that is causing the glitch.

Perhaps a different virus or spy ware checker? or as Arabella mentioned any web accelerator?

You get sent back to the log in screen because the Sleuth server has lost communication with your computer and it requires you to log back in to establish that connection.
