I am. It takes a long time to tell me it won't work.

Yeah, it was running slow for me yesterday as well - then CuteFTP decided to lock up my computer on me, then I rebooted, waited about a half hour, and tried again...working fine, now...*shrug*<P>------------------

Yeah...I use Windows Commander (mainly cause it's more stable than dreamweaver 4's ftp client, which tends to crash my computer, and because it has a cool name). But it keeps timing out, so I can't log on. For a while it just would sit there trying to log on but nothing would happen. But now it just times out right away. And I attempted to ftp using Internet Explorer (which works in a pinch) but that gave me a blue screen of death, so I'm not gonna do that again. *tear* This means I won't be able to upload tommorows comic or my new site design ...hootanany and tarnation!

I dunno but, for some reason I tried to make another page for my site, and everything but the images work. I doubt i messed up a tag somewhere, because i just copyed the html from my index page which works fine. So i'm lost on that aspect. As for Cute_FTP, mines working fine, or fast at least.<P>------------------

I can get into my memeber page, i just dont know how to ftp. i cant get through on ws_ftp, and when i click the "change keenspace database", i get this:
"We are experiencing major database problems. In the meantime, we need to shut down the user data system to ensure that updates keep working.<P>Sorry for the inconvenience. We'll have it back up shortly."<P>so is there just a problem i have to wait out, or another way i to get in? cos i just got the green light on my page this week.

i got it now. the only thing that sucks is i cant preview what i put up, becos my update timing is all wrong. i still cant get access to change settings, but i guess i'll have to wait it out.
my problems was the FTP i was using, WS_FTP, i dont think i had the fields right. but i got LeechFTP instead, and i got in.
thanks.

I'm having trouble. Can't get into the FTP with the password (works on everything else tho) not even sure what has happened to my site, and I'm really really annoyed by the fact I can't get anything to work right... Apparently it's similar to everyone elses problem at the moment.<P>------------------

I can't get any FTP program to work! I downloaded SmartFTP and it won't work for me.
My comic must be updated!<P>------------------
