Are we being hacked?
« on: January 21, 2011, 07:50:48 AM »
Are we being hacked? Amiga.org just crashed on me which has never happened before like this. All my other internet is fine except for here. Also it happened on the same day that Amigaworld.net has vanished. I checked moobunny and nothings there. When A.org came back on a few minutes later there were only 20 or so users online so obviously it affected everyone.

Should i be worried? :confused:

For me, the site is actually loading faster and more reliably now than it has in weeks.

I often have to try multiple times before I'll get a file, Aminet seems to be distributed over a bunch of servers and not all servers have all the files, strangely enough.

Same.  I was finding it unbearably slow, but it's far, far better lately.
