This time the domain expired and was taken over by squatters? Is there an alternate domain name or IP address?

I don't understand how hard it is to keep a site up. zzz

The site is up. The DNS didn't expire. There was an issue with the registrar. The issue was resolved some time ago, but you may still be seeing propagation issues.

I can't connect to the site... Looks like it did when 'root worm' attacked it last...

They say it is back but even flushing DNS cache didn't help me. I still couldn't see it. I am currently using a proxy which works.

I can use it fine at work but was having issues at home still, even this morning. Hopefully it will clear up today.
