Me too in the last 5 minutes and need to keep hitting the back button Pierce?

ah yeah, the other server that provides name servers/email was off the network due to what i believe was an attack on another server.

So, shouldnt be happening right now.

Will keep you posted when i get a responce from the datacenter.

Ooo errrr, attacks eh ? Sounds grim. I lost connectivity to the site for about 5 mins in the end but all seems hunky-dory now. Taa

hmm

there was an error with one of the pieces of software on the server, that was overwhelming it.

I just did a reboot, and minimins would of felt slow for a few minutes, but its rebooted now and the site should be moving fast again.
