MtGox down?

[ronaldlee0917]

Is their website down again?
I have been trying to load the webpage for several hours but still no luck.
I can only access their support desk, but I think I will only receive a reply after a week given the professionalism of their support team.

It's fine in the UK

I think what it is, is some hackers who really have it in for anyone who's adopting Bitcoin or openly using it, this doesn't seem like a smash and grab job to me like what we had before, I can connect to MTGOX now but I have been having trouble lately.

[uhoh]

Fine here, UK too.

I was able to sneak it for a minute and canceled my orders, but now the website is not accessible again.

Try clearing your browser caches and history see if that helps.

tried that, the same happened - connection timed out

Maybe your IP block is on their ddos-prevention blacklist currently. I don't have any insight into how Prolexic works but seem to recall some folks being prevented from connecting as a side effect of the anti-DOS system before.

Alternatively, some relays in between you and gox may simply be having issues at the moment.

I was worrying about that too. But I am a 100% clean trader, the worst I have done is letting clarkmoody and bitcoinity on 24-7, do those websites use my ip address to query the MtGox trade log? If it is so, they may block me for sending numerous request.

Clarkmoody does that.
