Back

For the time being at least, and maybe permanently. Apparently someone launched a determined DOS attack on a site that was sharing a server with this one. For the last couple days, Hostmatters has been dispersing sites among servers trying to get people back up and isolate the victim site. I don’t know if they’ve finished yet, but it appears UO has been hived off from whoever is drawing the attacks. So, hey.

    Thanks, guys. And oh thank god we’re back too. Responding to some comments in the thread above this one, I realized that I felt - better! Cause of you guys. If only there were such effective relief for the real sufferers right now.

    Whew! I’d begun to worry. Hope there’s not a next time, but if so, maybe email a blogging buddy to give a heads-up?
