Yeah I'm finally able to get back in from my computer. Had to use my iphone before. This has happened a bunch to me before. Always thought it was just me until I found out a whole bunch of metro people were having the same issue.

This has never happened before. It is a result of an active Denial of Service attack on our registrar's DNS servers. You may have experienced other issues at various times but this one is specific and unique.

This is what register.com sent me this morning:

[QUOTE]Over the past 36 hours we have experienced intermittent disruptions to our
services as a result of a distributed denial of service issue - an intentionally
malicious flooding of our systems from various points across the internet.

Sounds like you should go with a more robust distributed DNS provider.
