yesterday & today i tried to open avd site & it kept coming
up we are moving blah blah.
that was when i kept hitting avd from the address bar
then just now i hit avd from the favourites bar & it worked
just wondering if this is happening to others that is unaware that the address bar wont get you back on now
unless you retype in the address.
ppl might still be trying to get on thinking it is still down,
or maybe just my computer anyway thought ppl might need to know.

Wally,

at this stage, you should not be seeing the old site at all - that is your ISP using a bad DNS setting. We cannot help users who have bad ISPs. I was able to see the new site after 20 minutes, which is cool.

We knew when we re-delegated that this would affect a percentage of our users, but we had no choice. At least it's done now :)

Man, so many amateurs at this profession.

My advice is "show no fear" - the computers recognize it and act up.

I also had the exact same problem.
