Hi Cheryl,
Was the Applian server down for maintenance or something yesterday, Replay took a long time to load (registration check I expect) and couldn't' access Applian.com.
Cheers

We were the victim of a Distributed Denial of Service attack (DDOS) of unknown origin. These are powerful attacks, and have brought down many big corporate sites in the past. Some parties flooded our servers with unwanted traffic, and as such we had to spend most of the day reconfiguring our servers to adjust. We’re continuing to monitor the situation, and we have put in place measures to deflect such attacks in the future”.
