Default Downtime.

Sorry guys. 1&1 Internet sucks. Never use them for your web hosting.

We're back. I'm really sorry for the extended downtime.

Yeah I'm glad I haven't had problems with 1&1 yet (crosses fingers) Although I do plan on ditching them when I get back and host my own server.

1&1 is great when it works, but their support is an absolute nightmare. I have a dedicated server there. We've had it for a few years now and it usually works great, but when something goes wrong, trying to get help is the most painful thing I've ever done in my life.

Thank God it was a technical problem. I thought my family had gotten the ISP to block the .org and was planning an "intervention"

I was even worse off. I thought my crazy malfunctioning computer had somehow sent out a killer virus and I was responsible for the death of the org.

Man, I was getting pretty frustrated trying to bring the site up and kept getting that "This Page Cannot Be Displayed" or some such message. At first I couldn't figure out what was going on, then the realization hit home that there was some type of problem causing "site downtown." I'm sure glad it's up and running again, though....
