For me the site seems to download for ages and nothing happens. Could it be down by any chance? Somebody with a clue? Thanks!

Thanx, GR! Really, nowadays one cannot be sure if his favorite site is under DDoS - attack. Last two weeks NB, yesterday TL - who knows next? This is really whacky.

That's what I've been afraid of. So it's general. Because when it's due maintenance U can always login to OINk - site, where they announce the current process. Not this time. Hopefully nothing serious.

It has been reported on the UK radio station "Radio 1" that a man from Darlington, UK has been arrested in relation to OiNK this morning. I'm guessing that this is likely not going to turn out well.

By the way, I didn't hear the news report it first hand but have heard it from a good friend just a few minutes ago. Nothing online about it yet, keep checking the usual news sites. :)
