thursday and this morning,i dropped you a mail about it tony ,seems fine one minute and gone the next ?? :casstet:

 

[TC]

I thought as much !!

Got your e-mail and replied, Bri.

I\'ve been in touch with Elton about the problem and he said.......

\"It appears that the ISP have been having problems with their
mySQL server (which NESA runs on).
They have said that they are performing some
maintenance. At the moment, my hands are tied, but I will keep bugging them\"

Hopefully, things will be back to normal soon.

up and down like a whores knickers...

it\'s not just nesa though, seems like a lot of other sites on the w3 have been hit and miss this week...

 

[TC]

Aye 5150, I gather it\'s not only NESA that\'s affected.

 

[alan]

thats right theres was a few other sites down last night as well,thought it was my isp at first.

Seems to have been a spike in new viruses in the last week or so, probably a lot of network traffic as a result of those i\'d guess...

this isn\'t isolated I\'m Afraid. over the last fornight there has been some major DOS attacks on web servers the world over. One of mine is completley ballsed up. Got nearly 300 accounts on it which I\'m currently going through one by one.

Much of the world\'s hosting is done in the states. Look at tomorrows date and think about it! I\'d expect there be a lot more over the next few weeks running up to the elections in the US
