Ok... what is the new IP or IPs... my comp won't connect...

I've flushed the dnscache, refreshed my IP addy (DHCP etc)

I know the site is getting slammed... but I am only getting 404 errors...

Help!

Try again. It was not refreshing for me, either, until just a minute before this reply.

You do not need to have the website's IP, it's what DNS was invented for. For convenience. Let it do it's job.

Just remove the entries you made in your hosts file. DNS has long been propagated to the entire world.

Not sure. I think I remember someone saying that was a code glitch, and that it should only be one confirmation, but I'm not sure.
On my user page alone there are lots of bad CSS directives... several JavaScript warnings... and a class exception.

Also the journal comment counter is hosed.

Life goes on.

OT: DNS woes

Oh, c'mon... tell 'em. DNS nameservers and routers have been know to glitch.
I did.

If others are having similar problems with their ISP's nameservers, I recommend switching temporarily to a public nameserver such as the ones run by http://www.OpenDNS.com/ (nameservers 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220). OpenDNS have a how-to on their site.

Something I noticed, but not sure if it's a known issue or not. A lot of user icons are refusing to load for me. If it's not in cache, it generally won't load, or takes hours to do so. Heck, I've left a window up for upwards of 15 hours and the thing is still trying to load icons.

Nevermind; it's an issue with my laptop. For some reason my network connections go wonky if I don't reboot the thing after a few days.
