The server is acting oddly, I've had to reboot twice. Once last night and one just now. Service may be up and down for awhile. There's a lot of bogus traffic being logged, we may be under Denial of Service Attack. Or it may just be some goof on the network at the server farm has his Windows machine configured to broadcast everything he's doing over the local net. That's happened before.

I'd suggest not trying to post stories for a few hours till maybe I can get this sorted out.

Can't find any evidence of deliberate invasion or sabotage. What I thought was bogus traffic was legit. Bob has taken a look around and can't find anything seriously wrong either. Looks like a database overload but no idea why the overload. I'll keep an eye on it but it looks fine for now.

Thanks for the hard work, Erin and Bob

I had trouble this morning, you went down as I logged in, and I sent Bob a note over at Stardust.

Good to see you back up.
