I just wanted to let everyone know server was down for several hours tonight due to a DDOS Attack.
Clix recommended "Trophaeum" and he was able to fix the problem in 15 minutes...The whole BHW community thanks you Trophaeum!

It's interesting that whatever you did speeded the site up - because it certainly seems that way. Good stuff.
