I don't know, but I had trouble with TPT.com and briefly here at SC.net, also. I wonder if someone's trying to launch a denial of service attack...

Yeah, we want Leroy back! I hope the site is OK.

If you a go to backstage.com....Event Driven Stocks (company site) comes up. Maybe the domain was not renewed and therefore taken over. Very sad if true! I felt Ian's memory was alive and well in that forum...at least for me.

I don't think Barbara and Chandra would let that happen. It might be a temporary glitch, which does happen once in a while.

Check out backstagecafeonline.com - it's still working.

Yep. If it's down more than a couple more days, someone might want to call the Backstage and let Chandra know. If someone hasn't already.

I sent Barbara an e-mail.

Looks like a technical glitch all the way. I sent a message to the administrative and technical contacts listed in a WHOIS lookup for the domain.

Also, Ian's newer but never utilised site seems to have had a lot of things removed from it.

I'm sure it'll come back up again. Maybe it was hacked.

In the meantime here's the backup - http://tribes.tribe.net/aui

I should have come here first knowing you'd have the answers. Been searching different sites for a while looking for any mention, to no avail. Actually made me feel almost as sick to my stomach thinking the board was no longer. While I think the myspace account is a beautiful tribute to Ian, the AUI board is where he lives on and is most cherished, IMHO.
