Thanks for letting us know Spot i was wondering why i couldnt get on
"Why not just tell people I'm an alien from Mars. Tell them I eat live chickens and do a voodoo dance at midnight. They'll believe anything you say, because you're a reporter. But if I, Michael Jackson, were to say, 'I'm an alien from Mars and I eat live chickens and do a voodoo dance at midnight', people would say, 'Oh, man, that Michael Jackson is nuts. He's cracked up. You can't believe a damn word that comes out of his mouth.' " Michael Jackson

So what happened then? Was the site hacked?

The reason I ask is because when I could not get on I pinged the server and it responded OK, so I then tried to access through a proxy and the site tried to download an MS DOS file to my system - not good

Testing, testing. Are we doing it again?

No - it looks all cleared again. Carry on, everyone.

That's twice I've been asked. What's wrong with people? It's a perfectly good word, I thought.
