    2Checkout down/having some problems?

    I first noticed that I was unable to visit request payment links that I sent out, and then about 5 minutes later I tried to reach their website (www.2checkout.com) and was unable to reach it also. Is anyone else finding similar things?

    Their website has been up and down, but their payment gateway has been down this entire time for me. I've asked others and they say they have the same problem. Wonder why no one else has come here :-/

    Ahh, just checked the payment portal for the first time in a few hours, seems to be working again. I wish 2CO would be more on top of their downtime updates.

    Ahh they posted the cause:

    Apr 11, 2004: System Problems
    We are experiencing intermittent service outages today with purchases due to a DDOS attack that began on Friday. The attacks appear to be part of an extortion plot. Four engineers are working on the problem in addition to our upstream providers. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working hard to minimize and eliminate it's effect. Thank you for your patience.

    Paysystems is now facing problems too with their merchant system. Probably just a round of DDOS going round...

    Now 2checout sellers area is up but their menu is broken!
    May be it is only for me?
    May be it is only for old customers login?

    Can anyone see that their sellers admin menu is broken?

    The 2Checkout.com sellers area and login load for me now, but when I send out payment e-mails, the links on those are unreachable. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    Same here, when will 2CO get these DoS attacks filtered? Wish they would give us some sort of status on the issue.

    But I don't Understand this part " Pay us or else we will continue to attack"

    Been working fine for a while now, whatever they did to fix it stopped the problems all of a sudden. I'm kind of uneasy though that someone has 2CO under their radar for extortion. Wonder what might happen in the future, heh.

    http://www.2checkout.com/ is loading fine though their seller area is down for me too, I've read on their site that they've been getting DDOS Attacks none-stop lately.
