I wasn't able to get on last night two friends (Sky and Orange customers) were able to. I had to use a proxy site to get access. It's back up and running fine now though and I don't see why Vermin would ban Techwatch and not Wizard Mods, Data Drome, Bashy's Place etc.

My mac stopped working yesterday and when i got a new working mac i too had problems reaching techwatch. Annoying!!

'Privoxy' is a good free proxy server to anyone that's interested. I'll be sure to use this myself if it happens again! Has worked great in the past for me!
