1. She's probably just getting too much traffic.
It was down the other say, too, right after Randi Rhodes mentioned her URL and told people to go give money.

~A!

7. We should chip in and get her a better server.
She is one of our last hopes at this point.

9. I signed up and haven't received a confirmation e-mail yet.
She needs mirror sites and/or a more secure server.

19. I had problems signing up
I tried the volunteer link on the home page, never got a response. Then I got to the forum, tried to register, it gave me a user name, and sent a password that I never received.

I registered a different name and used a different email - a yahoo account - and I got the password email immediately.

I don't know what that means, but I took it as a sign it hates my usual email address.

12. The 'Votergate' film took us over everything we've got on
our dedicated server.

People LOVE this 30-minute film and are going nuts over it. But we don't have the muscle to host it. Someone with a gigantic server needs to take it on. This film has been shut down, attacked, and dirty-tricked almost to death, because it is the real meal deal, goes right into the bowels of Diebold and just about everywhere else, has film footage of a machine voting for the wrong candidate, and paints the real (grisly) picture about voting machines. And, it's funny.

All that, but they can't complete the 2-hour version without significant donations and they can't keep the 30-minute free version up without takedowns.

They are seeking another host, and I won't tell you here what shut them out of their first host, but I very much hope they give me permission to tell you exactly who was behind this thing someday.

We're back up, but Votergate once again has no home. I guarantee you Diebold thinks that's pretty cool.

Bev

13. Bev- Use Bittorrent!
I don't know enough about it to tell you how, but it's a distributed menthod. One of your geeks should be able to tell you.

14. Andy from Mike Malloy -- give an update on BBV website
It was hacked -- the whole website was hacked and basically destroyed.

They are working at getting it back up -- should be back up tomorrow.

They are working at getting on a new server -- with a new company which will provide a higher level of security.

It seems like we are right -- because when the truth tries to come out the bad guys try to shut it down.

18. Possibly DNS by the FReeptards
and their cronies. They can't allow such challenges to their position.
