This is just an update for those of you trying to get to our website today. Our hosting provider has experienced a major outage to its core connectivity and has been working non-stop to get it resolved. The current estimated time of repair is 5:00pm PST. We apologize for this outage.

translation: the hosting providers one windows machine is upset and won't do it's work so they are wiping the hard drive and rebuilding the server. ;) j/k

Must be the overwhelming demand for Avatar Lab that strained the system.....

I hope they're not storing SR3 with that provider! It might slow them down.

"Our hosting provider has experienced a major outage to its core connectivity..." The franistan collided with the henweigh causing a 4 gopher pileup in the power core then the cat got out of the bag and into the canaries and the results were... messy :-)

Why shouldn't speech be free? Very little of it is worth anything.

Darn!!!!!! i was trying all day to place my order for that $1600 web thingy.. "proV" I was going to head over and get Pro-V (version 1.0) also, but since I couldn't order it, I went to the Adobe site and got GoLive (version 6) instead. Oh, and I saved $1,200 also. --John

Ah estimates. Still not up. Didn't have a reason, but if it was important enough to post the notice, it was important enough to check.

Sheesh! Earthlink can go down for hours, and I won't tell you about the hell Compuserve put me through... no access for days and days again. They didn't have the courtesy to tell us what was going on, either. Thank you for letting us know, and I hope that your provider can send that gremlin packing. Carolly

Sheese, nothing like giving the new guys a chance. Thanks for the heads up, CL.

Heck, you get a message now saying the site has moved, and a link to an IP address, and the site won't load. This does not look good at all. "Curious Labs web site is being relocated If you are getting this error, your computer has not gotten our DNS updates yet. You can get to the Curious site thru this link. " http://128.242.122.66/
