Intertops has been down all day

[KennyB]

Site was saying check back in the 30 minutes. Now it says check back in an hour. Sucks, baseball game goes off within the hour.

Well, I just posted a topic on this - lol - now they say 15 minutes. Did you try calling? I didn't because I've got other outs.

 

[Jazz]

ITOPS - strike 1, missed the Yankee game

What is/was the reason? DOS attack?


WSEX
I received an answer to the email which I sent Saturday asking about what was wrong with website?
Answer_ "an internal problem"

 

[Jazz]

No idea - but this is the latest on their site ...

Intertops is closed for system maintenance.

We hope to resume normal service as soon as possible.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause

LATEST UPDATE - WE BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN RESOLVED
AND ARE RUNNING INTEGRITY CHECKS. We estimate we will be back by 1900 Eastern.

Well Jazz,
Reason I asked was that I think that Intertops is not only one of the first on-line books, but also one of the safest (both from the players standpoint --lowering limits, etc). There fore I would think that they also have one of the best internet security 'programs' available. But that's just my thinking and why in the world would they pick THIS particular time to do maintaince? I don't know either. But I do hope all these books are safe from DOS attacks and don't pay any $$$ to the crooks.

I have had problems with it today myself.

 

[Jazz]

I seriously doubt it was actually maintenance in the sense of 'planned' activity, it was certainly in response to some problem they were having.

 

[pja101]

They're back up.

 

[Jazz]

bump - yup, they are
