Anyone having problems with the net today?

[Falkentyne]

I thought it was just me...

(I'm using Verizon adsl).
But my friend, who is using Charter Cable, can't connect to gamespy, either (which means, no server list). And I can't even connect to slash's servers manually.

I also can't connect to the chinese oicq. That started failing the same time as gamespy stopped working.

This happened sometime this morning.

Thankfully, I can still connect to the Battlefield: 1942 EA servers, HOWEVER i can NOT connect to the CD key authentication server (it pauses on connecting to server xxxxxxxxxxx for about 10 seconds), but of course, since the authen server times out, it lets me on, anyway.

Gamemecca just died just now, and then came back to life, shortly after posting this.
I hit refresh, and this appeared:

There appears to be an error with the GameMecca Forums database.

Can you connect to gamespy or ASE?

I haven't had any problems today.

Voodoo extreme (ve3d.com) is also down.

It's a worm that is affecting all servers that use sql or something.
the entire net is affected by this. You guys are just lucky enough to be on the side of the split that works.
