We're Back!
What a nightmare! After being off line for three weeks we are now back. So what happened?
Making a long story shorter...
The absolutely horrendous 'Melbourne IT', an Australian company, shut down access to the domain name 'huntingtons.info'. When we contacted them they wanted 10 times the normal fee to reinstate the domain name. Left without options, we sent in the paperwork with the payment information.
Nothing happened. We sent it in again. And again. And Again. And Again. And Again. Four days after the last time they finally reinstated the domain. During this period I could not even get a reply to an email as to the status. I got one response when I submitted a 'ticket' via their website and they promptly answered THREE days later.
Melbourne IT may quite possibly be the worst company in it's industry.
So that's why we were shut down for three weeks.

Hi Dave,
Happy to see you back on the track. :)
I've also wondered what went/was wrong. First I thought another hacker or virus killed your site for the second time, but another problem instead
happened I see.
Hope your site and contributions to HD will be heard all over the world for a long time.
Succes and stay on line!
If needed, when something happens again to your site, wich I do not hope, I can make your visitors attent to your problem on my site if you like.
You have my e-mail adres, or otherwise visit my website and leave a message in my mailbox or guestbook. I will put it on my site then.
Best regards,
Gerard (Netherlands)

Great to see you back Dave. I'd worried that the site had simply closed. I read your blog as often as it is updated; I hope to see it around for as long as is necessary.
