Best guess is that Matt was installing the new server.

Nope not yet. We are hoping to get them shipped next week.

I guess I don't know of any problems with getting on the site the last few days at least no one has mentioned it to me or as far as I know to Matt. Now we did have a glitch of some sort that kept the banners from displaying yesterday and I think maybe the day before as well. Matt could find no good reason for it but I think last night he got with the folks who host the servers and it seems fixed today.

This morning I had but a limited time before heading to the eye doctor but when I tried to get online I wasn't able to get the forums up. I just didn't have time to see if it was the forums or my computer really. When I got home all was well so I guess I still don't know. But last night when I turned in all was well with the forums and again when I tried after getting home today.

As I said we are not aware of any problems with getting to the forums that anyone has had lately as nothing was reported to us by anyone.

PS: I just called Matt to ask if he was aware of any problem. He was. It seems that whatever caused the banner problems also had kept some folks off the forums. I wasn't aware and am not sure he was until he got with our hosting company to fix it all. But as of now all should be back to normal.

As I said we hope to ship the new servers next week and have them up and running a couple days or so after they arrive in Texas.

Thanks Graybeard, I was afraid we got hacked again. Glad to hear it was only a minor problem. Byron
