MacBook Air sierra 10.12.3 Mozilla Firefox Safari
I keep getting server not found messages – particularly when going to this site as it happens.
I’ve reloaded Mozilla before but it recurs. I read about a known server not found issue with Mozilla in 2014 and some fairly complicated instructions on how to change settings to rectify.
I’m hoping one of the wizards of the blog can assist. Just running ClamXAV and nothing coming up.
Any suggstions?
Gracias.

The site was undergoing a DDoS attack this morning – it should work OK now.
Aplogies for the inconvenience.. 🙁

I assume there was an enormous ransom which has been paid in bitcoins.

thanks @rich
The problem is more longstanding and I’m hoping that unticking a box in the energy saver preferences will help.
BTW – why do they do this DDOS stuff.? We have no political affiliation and are not a for profit group so why bother ?

No idea in this case.. I think DDoS is usually done (barring technical snafus) for ransom, grudges, political reasons or just vandalism..
