I spoke too soon. I just caught another hit and when I started to work on it, it gave the following error, "Service Unavailable - DNS failure The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later." it might be a good time for a break. Hmm...

Anyone else seeing errors all of a sudden trying to get HITS to load?

a couple hits gave me an error message, others seemed to go thru fine

 

[Starslip]

Seems back up now

 

[HelloHello]

I was just able to do a hit!

You're right about that. I just did a 3 cent hit with no issues. I hate to waste my catchers right now on a good hit only to return it, if it gives an DNS error, so I think I'm going manual mode for a bit or better yet I'll take a break.

CNN
New York (CNN Business) - A sweeping internet disruption on Thursday briefly took out a wide range of major corporate websites — from FedEx and Delta Airlines to HSBC and McDonald's.

The outages coincided with reports of system disruptions from Akamai and Oracle — two key providers of internet infrastructure services.
