When trying to get to: mining.bitcoin.cz I get redirected to Google. Does anyone know what's going on?

This bitcoin thing looks very interesting... been following it for a while and just started mining.

I was able to get one BTC so far (using a carpy GFX)... just to test the waters...

It was theoretically transferred to my Bitcoin Address, but it hasn't shown up yet... (over 30hrs)...

Trouble seems to be that I have not downloaded all of the current blocks... my client had stopped at around 118420.. odd...

I deleted everything out of my .bitcoin (ubuntu) directory except my wallet.dat and addr.dat files and restarted the client...

It's downloading blocks again... I hope it is able to finish this time.

Anyone else have similar issues?
