The forum was unreachable between approx 11:30pm (3/20) and 3:30am (3/21) due to a DoS attack launched against my server. Unfortunately it happened while it was the middle of the night here so I didn't notice it until I did my routine morning server check.

By blocking the IP address of the attacker, I was able to stop the attack.

Don't know if it's related, but the View all sponsors link seems not to be working. Or do you only have one now?

Actually, the "View all sponsors" link has never worked. It's one of those "why can't I remember fixing that" things.

Not sure if it's just here at work, or if something else is up, but the forums are really slow right now. Normally at work there's no problems browsing here, but I can't get into any threads in GFD, haven't tried Tech, but this seems to be the only thread I can get into. Hope no one is messing with you/us again. Meanies!
