Trouble with LJ

Hi *waves*

I am so glad to be connected again. I heard about the trouble with LJ, but it seemed to hit me 24 hours later than everybody else. I am usually only on line from 5.30 to 6.00am on week days and yesterday it was fine, but today... I haven't been able to get onto LJ at all, until just now.

Having taken a quick look at my flist, I don't see anybody complaining, so was this just me?

There was something about a go-slow for British users, earlier in the week. Was that the problem?

Anyone got any ideas?

Also, those who read my stories might have noticed that I use http://www.twiztv.com/scripts/ to check on canon dialogue. Today I went there and got a pop-up message that my computer was infected. The site opened up an application that started scanning my hard drive. I closed everything down and disconnected from the internet. Then I ran a thorough virus and adware check (my anti-virus software is up-to-date) and it all came up clean. So I am left thinking that the twiztv site has been corrupted.

Unless anyone knows different?

Anyway, as a result, chapter 19 of Bewitched will be a bit late. I do still aim to post today, though - I just have a lot of typing to do. Sorry for the delay.

So did I. I was just being lazy, because they are on an external hard-drive and the internet was right there. *g*
You obviously didn't have any connectivity problems today.
One week! *bounces with you*

Not a one. Thursday was annoying, when LJ, Facebook and Twitter were all DDoSed, apparently to stop one specific blogger from having a voice, but apart from that, I seem to have been spared the horrors of no lj access. So far. But of course, now I've said that... *g*

If I come back from work and I can't get on, you'll hear the shrieks of anguish from there. :D

*g* I have never been unable to connect for so long. It was awful *g* I'll keep an ear cocked for long-distance shrieks, but hope not to hear them.
