Hi People

Just a little email to let you all know that AmiBench is in a mess at the
moment, heres a reply I've sent to some people (post it where you feel fit)

You think its annoying, you should see it from my point of view.... I'm
getting complaints that its not working, and what people tend to forget is
that its a /free/ service :\, It feels like I've been mailbombed with
complaints (40 so far).

I've found the problem (I think), I'll give you an exclusive explanation as to the
problem and its cause. For some reason AmiBench is exceeding its 'disk
quota' this means that when the limit of the space we have is reached (via
people placing the adverts) it all goes pair shaped and resets the data to 0 bytes.

The reason for this (at a guess) is that my provider dreamhost.com suffered a nasty hacking
attack. So things are not back to normal yet, normal service will resume
asap. Meanwhile, I suffer with hairloss, lack of sleep,and an addiction to
coffee.

its 3:30 am I really must sleep.
