    Matchbook connectivity?

    Froze up. Mirror site doesn't work either.

    Bad timing too...

    I'm getting the same. Hopefully it will be back soon. What is the mirror site and what essentially does it do?

    Looks like the problem is getting to Matchbook's ISP just fine, ie sprintlink carries it to orlando and then the connection to the carrier to Antigua is hosed. That carrier is likely Cable and Wireless (c and w in line 14 above). In the internet business some say that C and W really stands for Clueless and Witless. This doesn't look like Matchbook's fault.

    They're back up, but message reads markets suspended.

    All offers off the board.

    everything looks normal to me right now.
