The site was inaccessable for most of the past 24 hours.. Is this related to what some have termed a virus on this site, or was the site hacked and taken over? Sure was strange...

I don't care why it was down.. I'm just glad it's up and running again!

Thanks Brent.

Ah, but what you know might not be entirely correct. It was actually Paul Wallis who awoke from his slumber to suspend the site until the hosting company could resolve the issue. I haven't yet seen a post-mortem on the issue, but I assume it is fixed at this time.

Ok now I think it would be in my best interest to cancel my meeting with Scott and Brent this weekend since I will not accept being the third wheel.....

Yes, it was big, bad, grumpy old me. Something bad got into the server and it need to be shutdown to fix.  :-[

Let me know if the problem returns. (hope not because I'm still not 100% sure what we did to fix it).

I haven't yet changed to firefox, but I just got the trojan error again on this site.
