A Sudden Impulse event was issued just prior to the 9.1 Japanese quake. Is this the event that will trigger the predicted CA quake? Time will tell...

Not working for me too (was working earlier this evening) although channels on sky is OK.

Maybe its cos everyone at ats is trying to access it!!!


To add: ATS ust had me as offline - which I clearly am not as I am currently following several threads.

Speculation on Twitter ranges from technical problems to speculation of hacking (by everyone from people connected with Libya to Anonymous acting in solidarity with ukuncut, the unions and black bloc)...

I have to agree

or it could be an anomynmous DOS attack because of the bbc's biased reporting of the recent protests

All down, they must all be routed through the same DNS or something.

Im listening to BBC radio 4 just now and its the just the parliament news on, no mention of the web sites.

Yeah...but the real question here is did the BBC announce the website was down, 30 minutes prior to it actually going down?

I don't believe all these rumours about the BBC website being down. There's nothing about it on the BBC website.

If its a hack then why not post something for all to see? That way they can get their point of view across. This way it could just be a server glitch.

I guess no news is good news !!!

I don't think so, which rules out widespread server maintenance

I'm hedging my bets on it being a anonymous denial of service attack

Back up now

Some of them are coming back now! check my post above and see

Hence why it is most likely a DOS attack, simply overload the websites with too much information and they automatically stop working, it's the simplest and easiest of internet hacks.

Good I can now go to bed

All sorted now!

It's back, anyway

panic over... lol

Wow there must be a very serious technical issue, otherwise it's really weird. I don't believe there can be such brilliant hackers able to silence the whole BBC...I am very curious. BBC not accessible also from NL

Just came back!
