Re: What happened to the PC security site "PC Flank"?

Since I used one of their security scanners a couple of weeks ago, the site can't have been down for months.

It was down for me. I'm certain it was a couple of months ago if not more. Perhaps it was a technical problem that was cured a little later.

They certainly could have had a problem a few months ago, fixed it for awhile and then went down again.

As to what the present problem is, I guess they could have a hardware failure, they could be down because of a Denial-of-Service attack, or ??? Checking on Google, I haven't seen anything mentioned regarding what is presently happening.

I run Xenu's link checker (»home.snafu.de/tilman/xenulink.html ) on my Mozilla's SeaMonkey v1.x's bookmarks once a month (end/beginning of it) and I don't recall seeing it not connecting in its recent reports. Since it is probably gone forever, I will remove it from my bookmarks. If it ever comes back, then please kindly tell us!
