I was thinking that they tracked my ip, every computer on the network is getting this error, I was wondering if anyone else was getting the same error (Catastrophic failure). Are you?

hmm........I got one to go through, but I was hoping to get a few more (it's nice having 4 addresses that you can send stuff to) but it appears to be dead. Oh well.......

I got through this morning and they didn't have the message saying the offer was over. I sure hope I got one! But it definitely didn't say anything like "You got a free mouse!" But it does say "If you took the quiz while the offer was still going" and the front page has definitely changed since I took it this morning.

I've got my fingers crossed,
