www.anonymizer.com says it is still there and my server is still running
fine, maybe Fasthosts or NTL or DynDNS have been giving a unreliable
services.The www.oft.me.uk domain name uses web forwarding not IP
forwarding so only the root directory is mapped across, once across to
speccyverse.homedns.org then the other pages are available.
DynDNS seem most likely to the cause of the problem, as I will have to
move the site offshore soon anyway this will be solved if this is the
cause.
