Is it just me or is news.grc.com extremely unstable?. This is two days in a
row I've tried to access it and occasionally it allows me but most of the
time it's just a simple "Finding Host....." then msgbox "Server not found".

On the news server news.andras.net in newsgroup andras.grc.news they discuss
news.grc.com availability.
One of its members MC wrote a monitor showing a 24 hour status of the grc
news server:
http://grcstatus.mctech.org/

It is still down by the way.

The last long downtime was a hardware failure last November.
 
The main pages seem OK, but the news.grc.com is unvailable.

clear)...... cheers anyway ;o)

It's back up. I'm sure Steve G. will have an interesting story to tell
about what happened.

This from the news made me smile;

"I wasn't aware of the trouble until moments ago, and simply pulling the
plug on the hub, counting to five, and plugging it back in was
all that was necessary."
