Perhaps your ISP hasn't expired the records yet, but I don't think it's going to come back for the rest of us until the root issue is addressed.

Yep, DNS entry http://www.mydnstools.info for www.hifisim.com points to 72.51.39.176 which is not pingable... however, if I ping here at home www.hifisim.com I get a reply from 199.101.28.130... something is messed up here..._uacct = "UA-2853614-1"; urchinTracker();

Yep, that might be the case. It´s strange though, webpage was completely down for several hours (ISP´s message webpage unknown), and now I can access it again. However, it seem to be outdated (forum post from 4:55 are signed as posted 2 min ago...). Presumably a "pre-crash" version.Anyway, let´s hope they don´t have any serious problem...Cheers

Well, the correct entry is 72.51.39.176 (which has ICMP filtered to prevent ping, you can connect to port 80 on that site). The problem here is DNS delegation is broken. It's a relatively quick fix once started.

Still no access to Hifi website or ASE weather download in Denmark.

Probably are based on the domain registrations. Those who know how DNS works can figure out what's happened. I'm sure the official people will make an announcement of some sort when things are being worked on and when they believe it's all resolved.

Look at this, the domain expired yesterday.That will be why it's not working.If they give you the ip address you might be able to connect with that, otherwise you face a wait while dns gets refreshed.EDITED BY ADMIN

That's what I've been saying without saying for a few hours now. I'd at least update the message to remove the guys addresses and phone numbers tho.
