Namecheap.com, where our domain is registered, just suffered a massive DDOS attack. The site may be up and down for a bit while they work to mitigate the issues.

Thanks for the info Brent. I was wondering why I couldn't get on this morning & early afternoon. At least I can prepare better if I can't get on again. I will know why now.

Thanks for keeping us informed Brent.

I have made more changes today to make us a little more redundant to these kind of attacks in the future. Sorry again for the down time!

Had a problem with the domain hours ago but it turned out to be my router (don't ask). I did note though that putting the site's IP address 162.243.10.160 into a browser displays a list of sites and what looks to be the software used on each... while I'm not sure putting that information out into the world is that bad per se, it did seem odd enough that I'd mention it here.
