Problems loading the flash games?

Alright. I did a lot of debating on which forum this should go in, and figured help would be the best. I'm really sorry if it doesn't fit, and if it doesn't, can a mod please move it, or direct me towards where it belongs? Thanks a bunch 
My problem is this. I was on neopets yesterday, happily playing games. My computer was lagging like none other, and I got fed up with it, so I just decided to reboot. You've got to understand, my computer doesn't normally get like that...it hardly lags at all, even with like...5 days of uptime. But anyway, I rebooted, came back, everything was working fine and dandy. I was playing Web of Vernax, and accidentally closed the window. Without hesitation I opened a new window with the game, and came up to a blank screen. Simply white. No loader, no black screen for the game, nothing. No status in my status bar or anything.... All the games are like this for me now. I've rebooted, to make sure that something wasn't hanging in my system, I've reinstalled shockwave, etc. Is the games for neopets down? Or is it just my computer? Because the site was awful laggy last night to me, I had a 1-10 chance of actually loading it around 2-3am EST.
Anyone with any clues? I've never had a problem up till now, and if its just neopets having problems, I can understand, but i haven't seen any topics on here, OR on Neopets about it so I'm concerned slightly....

They are working fine for me!:) What browser are you using cos i always have problems loading anything in IE? Other than that im afraid i have no suggestions, sorry 
Edit: Just thought of something, when i used to have probs before, i right-clicked on the screen and pressed 'forward' on the menu that pops up. That sometimes solved it if the game got stuck.....

Sometimes I need to refresh or even restart my web browser to get flash games to work. Cleaning out my temp files usually does the trick.
