Just to let you know Jeremy, I was not able to access Cyclone Fanatic today from about 10 am PDT, until about 30 minutes ago. Kept getting "Cannot find Server" message on Foxfire. Seems to be working fine now.

That was the symptom of the issue. I just guesstimated the start time as it didn't directly affect me until later in the afternoon after I had been working with the engineers to slow the problem.

It might have helped if you were using Firefox instead. :wink::jimlad:

UPDATE: Got this email from OpenDNS today.

SoftLayer, the hosting and DNS provider for cyclonefanatic.com, was accidentally denying traffic from OpenDNS while they attempted to mitigate a denial of service attack. We contacted SoftLayer yesterday morning and were able to get this resolved. All domains hosted by SoftLayer should be resolving normally at this time.

If you have any additional questions or comments, please let us know -- we are happy to help!
