 |
|
The site and forum unexpectidely went down today for two hours  Somebody tried to download too many pages at once and used a lot of system resources. As a result site monitoring software kicked in and temporarily disabled access to the site. My apologies to everybody who was affected by this. To prevent this happening in the future sometime this week I will put in place additional scripts that will recognize spambots and automated bot accesses, and automatically ban them.

The script is in place. Please avoid using web spider software as this may get your IP address banned (only temporarily). This change won't affect people who still use browsers
