Isohunt down! :(

[kazaaman]

Was just browsing through Digg, when I saw that Isohunt server's were down. Apparently their ISP in the US, took their data offline w/out any warning or anything.

Update, Jan. 16, 2007
Lawyers from our primary ISP decided to pull our plug without any advance notice, as of 14:45 PST. No doubt related to our lawsuit brought by the MPAA, but we don't have more information at this time until people responsible comes to work tomorrow. We will be back in operation once we sort out this mess with our current ISP, or we get new hardware ready at our new ISP.

Sit back and enjoy the rest of the internet in the mean time, while it last. For your torrent searching needs, try Google for now by searching for "SEARCH TERMS ext:torrent".
We'll update on this page when we have more information. If you wish to help us out financially, you can donate via Paypal from the button below. Due to prior dis-taste from certain individuals taking donations for their legal defense and run however, this is not a legal defense fund. Your donations will be used for the operational costs of our servers and development of our websites. You have our sincere thanks.

I hope they get back up soon because they had the best search engine for torrents..

Yes I agree with you and I hope that too

Sounds like they are planning on being back up within the week.
Possibly even tomorrow.

Update, Jan. 17

We are moving house. If the tubes run smoothly, we expect to be back in full swing tomorrow.

Couldn't have said it better, i never realised how much i actually use that place until i was trying to find something and it wasn't there.

ahh a junk site anyway, there are lots of other and better(in many ways) public trackers. but i appreciate their fight against the evil MPAA.

Wow, I just found out about this yesterday when I tried to go on their site for a file I couldn't find anywhere else. IsoHunt was my fav public search. =( They've been very awesome in the past fighting the MPAA.
