Hi all,
curiouser and curiouser.
well I’m glad to hear somebody can see the site.
I can’t.
here’s what i received from the host:
The server is up and has been for quite some time because I believe I found the culprit. But if you can’t see it, you need to do a TRACERT at http://www.dnsstuff.com to see where your connection is being lost. Remember, it is possible for you and many others in your geographic location to not be able to see a web site while others can. That tracert tells you approx where the hang up is.
This server was definitely up and down the last 48 hours, but try and trace it if you still can’t see it and let me know what you show because it has been running quite well for many hours now.

I tried that; but not understanding what it is that I’m seeing (big surprise)
here are the last parts of the trace, which I suspect is the problem since it says Router did not respond.

so what does that mean? is the site visible to most people?
Is this in any way a problem with the hosting?
if I have the site hosted somewhere else, will it still have so much trouble getting seen?
Oh ya, and
