Due to hacking attempts at the website the safety / security systems closed down the server. While not the optimum response - due to the nature of the attack the site was offline for about 8hrs. - the good news is, it was unsucessful and everything is intact and working. so we are up and running again. We hope to avoid outages like that by finetuning the "defense" software in future but rather live with minor problems like that compared to a disfunctional website.
We hope we didn't cause you to much of an inconvinience and are happy to see you all back (well, there are some blocked IP ranges now).

Your DPI team

That's at least something! It still makes me ask: Where the heck is Franky, still lost in space???? And if so, is it possible to find another php guy to do all the wizkid work?
