  Hi Chris, what do you see on the screen? Is it all blue, or does it load partially and then stop?

  An interesting phenomenon that I've noticed potentially related to Chris' problem is as follows: The menu on the left column of the screen will not load unless the browser tab containing the WGT URL is the active one. Perhaps this is FireFox related and not a bug in and of itself, but worth mentioning. =)

  at the first loading screen it was loading to 80 and then going no further, before that it was going to the screen when it would load the course and just stay at 0%. i downloaded firefox and it was working but its stopped working and now only fgoes to 40 on the first loading screen :(

  I am also having a problem loading the game.  I can log in and see that I have friends online, but they don't see me as being logged in and if I click the "PLAY NOW" button, absolutely nothing happens.   Up until yesterday afternoon it worked flawlessly???

   

  ***Deleted cookies and history and now it works again.

  Hi

  I just joined WGT and every time I click PLAY NOW either nothing happens or a window pops up then disappears within 1 sec ........ and nothing else happens

  HELP PLEASE :)

  Note: Have tried with Pop Up Blocker off and accepting pop ups from WGT

  I do think this will be related to your pop-up blocker and its (in)correct configuration, AussieDog.

  Also, try launching the game in various browsers. Does the issue as described occur in every browser?

  Another solution: go directly to the address where the game takes place, without opening the game in a pop-up window. Just click on this link and the game should begin: http://www.wgt.com/gameclient.aspx

  You can bookmark this address in your browser and then always launch the game via your bookmark, so that you never have to open the game in a pop-up window. (The only advantage of opening the game in a pop-up window is that the window's size is automatically adjusted to fit the size of the golf game screen. However, you can launch this game in any window and then fit the window's size to your liking manually later on. You can also switch to the full-screen mode in your browser and only then launch the game; works especially well on an LCD TV; the vast expanses of Bethpage fairways and greens look awesome on those dozens of inches of a TV screen!)

  Thanks for your reply.

  Opening from the link you gave works perfectly :)
