I can't access the site either.

I just got in.

Really. Hmm. Strange. I still can't get in, and I didnt do anything to my system from late Last night to this AM, so I can't figure it would be me...but, no big deal. It's a nice day, better probably for me to go sit on the porch and have a beer in the sun, and do some relaxing out of doors anyways...I'm sure PBW will be accessible later...

thanks,

Alarik

EDIT: spelling

It works for me also, looks like the problem is on your side.

It seems that PbW has taken a more active stance on its hate for Hotmail, and it currently trying to kill my account. I have recieved the five hundred kilobyte new turn for NGC5 five, count them five times so far today.

First two times in ten minutes at around five this morning, then three times in fifteen minutes just now.

Not sure what might be done about this, but it is somewhat vexing.

We haven't changed anything in the code. I am not sure what's up with this Hotmail problem. I got several hundred email bounces again this weekend. As far as I know PBW does not attempt to resend an email if it fails the first time. Although I cannot say for sure that the service we use to send emails doesn't do that. Just like a person, once you send an email and it gets to your isp, you don't have any control over what happens then.

I don't really understand what's going on. It definetly seems limited to people with Hotmail accounts though, as far as I have heard.

Seven times now, although since I can really only fit tow of them in the account, there's no telling how many additional times it's tried to cram one of them in there.

Still, I understand if there isn't much that can be done about it.

Does it have anything to do with Sasser?

My hotmail has been apparently unaffected, FWIW.

"Sasser"?

Not sure what that is.

But it's only NGC5 that's doing it right now, so it might have something to do with the game as well.

Unless we coudl follow every one all the way through, or unless I posted all the header information and someone interpreted it, we're going to have a bit of a time pinning any of that down.

I don't know if this matters or not, but I have received two virus emails today claiming to be from admin@pbw which I know is not true.

In other words I know that pbw did not send them. I really hope that one day that the person or persons responible for these viruses and other nasty pest come into some harm. Like loosing the ability to use their fingers or something.
