Yes, sorry about that!  The hosting company for this forum is in the UK and my bank put a freeze on my credit card as a fraud prevention when the charge came in - presumably because it was a foreign charge.  I ended up having to call the bank to release the freeze and authorize the charge (after trying 3 other credit cards - all to the same result).  Anyway, that's what happened - we are not going anywhere!  Also - I pay extra for automatic daily backups of our server so we will never lose it!

Yes, there was concern all over the world of the site being down.

I saw it posted on two different forums inquiring about the issue.

I thought I'd been suspended for some reason! The FJ group on Facebook helped me with that.

There does seem to be a slight difference from before the outage to after.  For me anyway... 

Anyone else notice that the FJ logo in the tab for Firefox is missing? 

I did notice that it works fine for IE and Chrome -it's just FF that has the issue of the logo being missing.

Dan, I think it's a localized issue.  All fine here with FF.
