I think it was an attack against BF as the IB homepage, and every other forum I tried linked on it except BF worked.

Yep, it's nice to see the site back up. On a positive note, my wife and I finally got around to painting our kitchen.

I couldn't get on again this morning. Same DOS issue?

corvetteforum was down at the same time bikeforums was down. The info I posted was from the adminstrator of the corvettefroum. Someone went after IB.

Oddly it must have only effected some IB sites then as I checked the home page and five or six links on it during the outage.

Why is the instant notification function not working?

I said that? Silly me...I didn't realize what the withdrawl effects were :lol:

I wonder if "HorseTopia" was affected....sorry i was looking through a list of other IB sites and that one made me laugh.
