I called tech support on PC to ask when all PWS and the main website would be back up and running. The gentleman on the phone said it wasn't exactly a server issue but that Corporate doesn't even have an online connection right now to the outside world. He said they are working on it but could give me no timeframe of when it would be fixed. Just wanted to share.

...A little frustating for me since I have an online show that is closing today and most of the people were going to place orders TODAY. C'est la vie!:p
 
Ooooohhh!!!!Sounds like someone cut a cable!!!!:p I had that happen one time where I worked. We had internal web and email, nothing out of the building. Some construction folks cut a cable.
