Anyone know what's up with Dixiesys tonight? **Update on the servers**

[NetworkDad]

I can't ping my server at dixiesys. I know they are moving their servers to a new datacenter, but mine's not scheduled until next wednesday. Can't even ping the helpdesk or the forums, but the main site is up.

Has anyone else here heard from Gary on what's up? I've ICQ'd him, but no response yet.

I'm on server7

**EDIT** Quote below from Gary on ICQ. Hopefully it's fixed soon...

Yes there are some problems, at this point it looks like we may have some compromised servers and we're trying to track down the problem, what happens is something triggers the server and it literally overloads the router and right now we're trying to track down the server doing it and what's causing it. Hopefully we'll have this tracked down very soon.

I think I am on Server 8 and I know I am not down right now.

I'm on server 14 and I'm down.

Gary just ICQ'd me back, here's the word from the man:
