    No, it's not the "internet." This problem has been going on for days and it's worse than ever. Hex hasn't logged in since early April so he has no clue and he's the only one that can fix it. It's happened before and he did something to fix it multiple times in the past.

    It took almost ten minutes for me to reply to this and I'm not sure this will even work.

    I encountered the same issue yesterday too. We have issues like this here at work from time to time as well and it's either our security guy mucking up firewall rules, or it's a provider DNS issue.

    I hesitate to guess what the problem was without more information, but the fact that this site has been working quite well for the couple of years I've been coming to it regularly and is working perfectly again today makes me think it was a the hosting company's issue, not a cigarsmokers.com issue.

    It's funny how quickly it frustrates me when I can't access a favorite website or forum. I was not too happy yesterday when it was taking forever to respond........lol...........but I was pretty sure it wasn't cigarsmokers even while it was happening.

    For me, it sucks in the morning and most of the afternoon. Evening seems a bit better.

    Alright, who broke the innernets?

    I am vacationing this week and thought I could be extra active here. I've spent the bulk of my vacation waiting for this site to load. It's a labor of love for me, my wife doesn't care much for it though.

    I couldn't access the site yesterday or the day before when I tried. We are having trouble on another site with periods where the site is inaccessible. I'm not an expert, but I see the same things happening---lots of chinese searching the site (baidu here and I can see IPs on the other site). Maybe the Chinese are planning to enter the cigar manufacturing business.
