I need to contact the boys at creamware, but predictably, it seems their server is down. anyone else having this problem?

there's a message, dated 08.01, that says it will be fixed in a few days.
No shop, MyPage and registrating at the moment.

as to who hates the server, it might be the same person(s) who took my email from this site who have been sending viruses in my name for the last year or two and who sent a couple to wolf at cwa just yesterday...(no, it's not my computer that's infected, my email address in question is strictly webmail, mail from it doesn't even get generated from my computer, nor are any of the addresses viruses have been sent to even in any address book of mine....)

no, it's not my computer that's infected, my email address in question is strictly webmail,

Some viruses/worms/trojans spoof senders from addressbooks, so that doesn't matter. I had one which was sending as my hotmail address for a while; got replies from company mailservers saying "you have been infected with a virus" and the like. Incorrect - it just had my address on someone else's machine (probably raided their addressbook) and was pretending to send as me.

oh, it's spoofing my address for sure. i suspect that the sender is a little more malignant than just a trojan using someone's address book though, as almost all(no, ALL) of the bounced emails sent back to me are from companies that specialize in music, especially creamware and creamware users. if it's a trojan, it's a picky one...

Yeah I've had the same problem with my yahoo address for a year or too.

Most but not all are music related ...

It's very annoying (and has been annoying John no end judging by how many times he's had to change his e-mail address)

Will.
