I was annoyed with the long down-time as a site user.  So, picking up on hints posted in the Poser forums at Renderosity, I did a Google search on the domain registrar which fingers were pointed at.  I read the news on that development from the links. 

Oh, that's a seriously bad situation.  If Poser users are to get support for their product, this is a very bad time.  Don't know how long it is going to take to get back the domain name.  Anyway, while some people obviously are able to use the CP and EF websites, I certainly have come up with nothing in my web browser, even having flushed the browser cache, and renewing my computer's DNS IP.

Perhaps EF and CP should just hook up to temporary alternative domain names and serve their own customers first.  But I'm sure they'll take their lawyers' advice.
