    I have had that problem before. It has usually been because Gamespy is playing up with me. Have you managed to connect to MP before this has happened?. It also may be worth checking your security/firewall programs to see if they are blocking outbound access. I spent a happy 30mins one day trying to connect before I realised this was happening.
    Hope this helps

    Do you use a firewall/antivirus?

    If so, have you given m2tw permission to access the internet?

    Note what I highlighted there. It is an hour glass, therefore it takes an hour to empty. You can't expect to wait ten minutes and it be done! Think rationally, boy!

    The hour-glass is just an image they use, it doesn't actually mean it will take an hour for it to load.

    Make sure your antivirus software allows RTW BI, or M2TW to access the internet.

    You are yet to understand my sense of humour.

    It was a joke.

    No idea what the OP's problem is if he doesn't have a firewall though...
