the forum appears to be working again!

Yea!
...for now. It's been a roller coaster ride of up and down the past few days.
Update: I've tried accessing this site at least a dozen times today and managed to get through only twice.
Mike,
I have experienced the same failure rate today. I sent a status update request to Tormek IT. I will post any updates.
Ken
Glad you are on it Ken
Tormek IT replied that according to our hosting service, we had an attack by a botnet. That is way above my paygrade, however, we are hopefully done with it.
Thanks for being alert, guys.
Ken

My money weas on a DDOS (distributed denial of service) attack. All too common these days. Insecure smart devices making it easier.
Forum is still a bit wonky. Fails to load or sometimes I get a page with text links.

I see the same page text links from time to time. Refreshing the browser loads correctly.
