Paragon Market doesn't load

Do you have a customized Hosts file on your computer? I had the same symptoms and was able to resolve them by deleting some extra lines I'd added to Hosts. There was nothing remotely related to NCSoft or COH in the Hosts file, yet it still confused the Paragon Market somehow.
Can you load this website without issue?

Renaming it worked (temporary solution obviously). I'm guessing the site Aggelakis listed is the one I need to make sure is allowed?

So what I thought I'd do is return and pretend I can focus on something.
Yes, the market is served up through PlaySpan. Check and see if it's listed anywhere in your hosts file, if that fixed it.

Well, that's where we run into a problem, because it's not in there.

...weird...
Can you put it back to the original name and try the website again?

Playspan works after reverting the file, but I tested in-game quickly to confirm it wasn't a coincidence, and the market still doesn't work in-game.
So it's definitely the HOSTS file, but there has to be an address other than playspan that's responsible.

What I did was test mine by deleting chunks of the Hosts file at a time. Even with a large file you can narrow it down pretty quickly that way.
In the end I only had to remove a couple of comments and some extra blank lines at the end. No change to the actual functional parts of the Hosts file was needed. Bizarre but true.
Man, I'm running in to the same problem (originally posted this under "Paragon Market Greyed Out"
I've dug up the hosts file and opened it in notepad but its empty except for a few comments.
I checked the link provided by Aggelakis and the page loads but the market still doesn't load (I tried cutting off various protections but to no avail).
I'm really at a loss as to what to do about it (should I delete my entire CoH folder and do a fresh install??)

When I click the Shop button in-game, I get the in-game browser that's apparently supposed to show the shop, but the "page" is just blank, dark grey. Leave it alone for several minutes, still nothing. The My Account and Support buttons do work, however.
I honestly wouldn't care if I could access it outside the game, but that appears to not be an option. So, help?
