Hey guys -

Like 3/4 of the sites I hit tody (Including mine) gave me 404 errors on and off. I tried 4 different ISPs and all 3 OS's I own, and it didn't change anything. Is there a worm goin around or something?

I've been having a lot of issues too, maybe some DNS servers are on vacation...

Wait, didn't verisign change a bunch of stuff? Like it was suposed to take effect at midnight or something.

No problems here. Then again, that might be the DNS server I'm using.

Both my connects were flying smoothly. Then again one of my webhosters was going extremtly slow and they think there was a net congestion at the time.

What would your server have to do with your internet conn?
