Anybody know if RS is under a DDOS?

:confused:

From the UK here, there doesn't seem to be any problem. I have a 600K NTL connection and everything loads pretty fast for me.

Seems fast from UK here also:)

I didn't know you were UK based, Chris!

What about Dot5? Based in the UK as well?

I'm from the uk! we rule :D

Extremely fast for me too. I'm not in the UK.

with me, it's variable

sometimes it's sloooow but I thought that it may be loading every bloody page

and sometimes it just leaps in so fast I haven't had time to adjust to the colours

I'm in Australia

perfectly ok from the uk. :)
