    Our apologies for the service interruption.

    The database server had crashed because one table had been corrupted.

    The problem is fixed now.

    In the past 12 hours the forum has again been suffering a Denial of Service attack.

    As with the previous two DoS attacks, computers of Forum members were infected with malware which launched the attack.

    There have been connectivity problems at the server farm where The OutPost Forum is hosted.

    They have not yet been resolved, but they're still working on it.

    Just to be clear, it is NOT a specific attack on the TOP Forum, but rather an issue with the agency hosting the forum (many other sites are also effected).
