Site works fine for me, though this is probably a stupid hour to try at.

well i manualy added a proxy server for another ntl aerea and it worked fine lst nite, until about an hour ago when i couldnt browse or get any emails, but i was still on irc fine. switching back to defualts and rebooting fixed it but now im still with no avforms :/

AVForums say:

vBulletin Message
Apologies but the forums will be down for a short time while we fix a few database issues.
