Todd, QWEST Communications here in San Jose had a 3 hour total outage today. This may have had something to do with your problems. Not sure. http://abcnews.go.com/wire/Business/ap20030821_1749.html For some limited info (E-Bay was completely off line) Since this is a backbone level site it's a pretty good chance that it had at least something to do with the problem.
