Hello Gents:

Can someone please provide me with an update as to what the problem is with the RX Forum and how long it'll be before the site is back to operating on a normal basis?
It seems like it's been down for a couple of weeks now and even at this particular time when I attempt to bring up the website where the NFL forum is located for example, I get a complete white screen except for the following 3 lines located in the top left hand corner which read as follows:

Welcome to theRX Forums.
We are currently experiencing technical difficulties.
Please click here (http://64.40.117.4/) to go to the forums

Is everyone experiencing this same scenario upon logging in or bringing up the website?

In any case, can someone (anyone) please try to shed some light on these technical problems or difficulties for me and what the overall status is at this juncture in time?
Better yet, if you have a time frame as to when we'll see a regular website once again, well let me simply say that's what I'm seeking.

The RX has been under a DOS attack since Saturday, September 6, 2008. What you described you see when logging in is the same for all members. We have had our technicians working around the clock to fight this very aggressive attack. We have been regularly posting updates as to the status as work continues. You can check some threads below in this forum as well as the Offshore Forum. We stopped putting out time tables at this time, because the attack continues. Ownership, management and staff are trying their very best to get the site back to operating normally. Your patience, loyalty and understanding are much appreciated.
