Has anyone been having trouble connecting?

I'm able to connect fine from home, but when I try from work I get the Firefox can't find server message. Then another time I got an open directory with a bunch of folders in it, and then another time I got the messageboard, but when I clicked on it, I was taken to the open directory thing again.

This is XP sp most recent, P4, Firefox 1.5, I think. I flushed my cookies (that sounds like some bad drinking story) and it was still happening.

it must have been down on and off for the last to days. I couldn't connect for most of the day, then around 4:30 today I was able to connect, then I just got a directory.

The IP could not be resloved. Wonder if it has any thing to do with the DOS attack that happened, or maybe aliens!

I think the interweb is broken again.
I had to use the "alt link to the site" on the tapeop main page... my bookmark isnt working at all. It goes to a parent directory FTP looking thing.
Awesome.

i added that alt link 2 days ago when our host (dreamhost) decided they would screw the subdomain. long story and several concerned citizen email replies later, we're back up and running. that ole interweb ain't purrfect, is she?

In fairness to Dreamhost, their snafu pr'y had something to do with the DDOS on DNS servers this week, which screwed a lot of stuff up, but good.

yeah its all goofy on my end as well.

remember that one time when mom and dad said it was due to too much off topic posts and mom jokes, and boob references? I wonder what it is this time? too many "what's the best blah blah blah for under $35?" posts i bet. yeah, thats it. leathur pantz.

you'll be happy to know that it doesn't have anything to do with any of you, you attention mongers, you!

for some reason, dreamhost has just plain decided to fuck us. we're that hot.
